So I chose ###markers### does it matter? Let's not start another TV vs
subpart markers discussion. I recall it was concluded the some people
prefer either and yes TV does solve some complex problems ordinary
###markers### would find tricky.

I have used templavoila now for my last 3 sites because I wanted to learn
that way.

I don't have a considered view between either templavoila or subpart markers
yet I do think templavoila adds greater BE confusion for absolute
beginners. In another thread another day I'll work through those points
more fully.

The simple reason I chose to pursue the subpart markers route is I think,
closest to the historic TYPO3 docs way of doing things.

The newbie workload difference between adding a few ###markers### in an html
file, or going through the TV process of installing two extensions, one BE
refresh, and clicking around the templavoila BE modules that are not
mentioned in any of the core TYPO3 docs and figuring out whether my mapped
object should be an Element or a TypoScript Object Path - well for me
looking at newbies, ###markers### are the easiest route.

This doc is not for you Dmitry so put it down and don't read it again...

Enjoy!
Matthew
