: good question. As pointed out, the official docs are the logical first stop, but it helps to follow a short, practical path: read the Quick Start and Template Syntax, then try a minimal project so the concepts sink in. Be aware many old tutorials target Smarty 2; prefer resources that mention Smarty 3 or later. 's note about phpDocumentor is useful for documenting PHP code, but phpDocumentor will not parse Smarty template files — keep template logic small and document the PHP side instead.

A minimal Composer workflow (common today) and usage looks like this:

composer require smarty/smarty

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
$smarty = new Smarty();
$smarty->setTemplateDir('templates');
$smarty->setCompileDir('templates_c');
$smarty->assign('name','Fred');
$smarty->display('index.tpl');

Troubleshooting and workflow tips: ensure the compile/cache directories are writable and clear them after upgrades; enable caching only after templates are stable; avoid putting business logic in templates — use plugins or helpers for repeatable tasks; use template inheritance or blocks for layouts. For community help and real-world Q&A, consult the Smarty tag on StackOverflow and the official GitHub repo for issues and examples (StackOverflow tag, GitHub repo).

If you want to use smarty for documentation, then you can use a tool called phpdocumentor.

http://www.phpdoc.org/
