Using Fluid in TYPO3
Here are some examples of how Fluid can be used in TYPO3:
- Create a template (theme) using a combination of TypoScript FLUIDTEMPLATE and Fluid. Check out the TYPO3 site package tutorial which walks you through the creation of a sitepackage extension.
- Create a custom content element type in addition to the already existing content elements TYPO3 supplies.
- The previous point describes the lightweight components which are created using a combination of TypoScript and Fluid. If you need more functionality or flexibility in your content element, you can create a content plugin using a combination of Extbase and Fluid.
- Use Fluid to create emails using the TYPO3 Mail API.
- Use Fluid in backend modules, either with or without Extbase.
