[TYPO3-english] templavoila?

[horace grant]

hi,

the current discussion about templavoila made me curios (again). :)
can anyone describe the advantages or great features of it?

a few years ago i have learned TYPO3 with a book that explained standard
templates and i only have used them so far. once you have made a few
projects you have building blocks that can be quickly reused for other
websites. i find it quite great.

when i took a short look into templavoila it looked much more cumbersome
with all the clicking around for binding the tags and all the xml stuff.
much harder to reuse. i liked the possibility of backend layouts but with
standard TYPO3 something similar is possible too since a while.

i have also read that templavoila supports custom content elements. sounds
great but what exactly is this? custom fields like say in wordpress?

cheers,
horace
