What is Beautiful View?

Beautiful View is a new take on the V in MVC for Kohana. It extends Kohana_View providing a separation from templates and view data. This separation is introduced with ViewModels and swappable Templates.

Aims

• Encourage the use of the ViewModel pattern
• Support unbiased template rendering
• Maintain compatibility with Kohana_View

Requirements

• PHP 5.3+
• Kohana 3.2+

Testing

To run the PHPUnit tests for Beautiful View simply ensure you have initialised submodules (git submodule update --init). Then you can jump into the "test" folder and run the following command:

$ phpunit

Any time you make a pull request please ensure your changes pass all the tests and that you write new tests for new features or bugs you find.
