Ask HN: How do I get feedback?

[ryan21030]

Hi, so I've made a templating engine that I am quite proud of and I'm sure that a few people will also like it but I have no idea of how to get feedback from people on what they'd like in it so that I can improve it. I've got feedback from a few colleges but I'm finding it hard to get anything else. I want to know what I can add to it to improve it for the whole programming community. Any ideas on how I can get this user feedback? Thanks

Cheeky link to it if anyone wants to check it out - https://github.com/DrRoach/templator

Here are a few ideas 1) Contact members of the php community through social media 2) Present it at your local php/tech meetups 3) Contact authors of PHP Weekly, SitePoint, Nettuts, etc

There aren't many places near me that hold things like tech meetups unfortunately but I'm definitely going to try out your other two suggestions

I don't use PHP, so sadly I can't use it, but after reading the description, it seems very similar to Jinja (http://jinja.pocoo.org). Were you aware of that templating engine? I use it and like it a lot, and if I have to use PHP in the future I will certainly try yours.

I've never used or seen jinja before but it definitely has a few features that I'm thinking of adding like block so thanks for the link. Thanks for giving mine a chance too!
