Twig Compatibility

While Pebble was inspired by and generally has high compatibility with Twig, it is neither a complete nor an exact Twig implementation. There are features of Twig not supported by Pebble, there are features implemented in Pebble that are not supported by Twig, and some features might behave differently or use a different name or syntax. This page outlines the similarities and differences between Pebble and Twig.
