# Templates
{% hint style="info" %}
This bundle come without theme, you can start reading the official Symfony [documentation](https://symfony.com/doc/current/templates.html) to create templates.

## Twig Templating Language
The [Twig](https://twig.symfony.com/) templating language allows you to write concise, readable templates that are more friendly to web designers and, in several ways, more powerful than PHP templates. Take a look at the following Twig template example. Even if it's the first time you see Twig, you probably understand most of it:
```twig
{{ blog.title|raw }}
{{ post.title }}
{% if blog.user %}
Hello {{ blog.user.nicename }}!
{% endif %}
{# ... #}
g
```
You can't run PHP code inside Twig templates, but Twig provides utilities to run some logic in the templates. For example, **filters** modify content before being rendered, like the `upper` filter to uppercase contents:
```twig
{{ post.title|upper }}
```
## Creating Templates
Before explaining in detail how to create and render templates, look at the following example for a quick overview of the whole process. First, you need to create a new file in the `templates/` directory to store the template contents:
```twig
{# templates/home.html.twig #}
{{ post.title }}!
{{ post.excerpt|raw }}
```
Then, create a [controller](https://symfony.com/doc/current/controller.html) that renders this template and passes to it the needed variables:
```php
// src/Controller/BlogController.php
render('home.html.twig', ['post'=>$post]);
}
}
```
{% hint style="info" %}
Methods are called automatically if the provided routing is used, see [Router page](https://metabolism.gitbook.io/symfony-wordpress-bundle/getting-started/router).\
To get action name, just click on Wordpress permalink, an error will display the expected method name :
**`InvalidArgumentException`**`> The controller for URI "/" is not callable: Expected method "homeAction" on class "App\Controller\BlogController".`
