🔥 Hot Tips

  • Put .twig templates in templates/
  • Put static assets (CSS, JS, images) in public/
  • Tina4 serves public/ files automatically — no route needed

Template Files ​

Create .twig files in the templates/ directory:

twig
<!-- templates/index.twig -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>My Site</title>
    <link href="/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Welcome to My Site</h1>
    <p>Built with Tina4 Ruby</p>
</body>
</html>

Static Assets ​

Files in public/ are served automatically:

public/
├── css/
│   └── style.css
├── js/
│   └── app.js
└── images/
    └── logo.png

Access via:

  • /css/style.css
  • /js/app.js
  • /images/logo.png

Template Inheritance ​

Use Twig-style extends and blocks for layouts:

twig
<!-- templates/base.twig -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>{% block title %}My Site{% endblock %}</title>
    {% block head %}{% endblock %}
</head>
<body>
    <nav>{% block nav %}{% endblock %}</nav>
    <main>{% block content %}{% endblock %}</main>
    {% block scripts %}{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
twig
<!-- templates/about.twig -->
{% extends "base.twig" %}
{% block title %}About Us{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<h1>About Us</h1>
<p>We love Tina4!</p>
{% endblock %}

Serve it:

ruby
Tina4.get "/about" do |request, response|
  response.render("about.twig")
end
