How can PHP developers effectively separate HTML from PHP code?

To effectively separate HTML from PHP code, developers can use a templating system such as Twig or Blade. These systems allow developers to create separate template files for HTML markup and then use PHP to pass data to these templates. This separation of concerns makes the code cleaner, easier to maintain, and improves readability. 

// Example using Twig templating engine
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$loader = new \Twig\Loader\FilesystemLoader('templates');
$twig = new \Twig\Environment($loader);

$data = [
    'title' => 'Welcome to my website',
    'content' => 'This is some content for the page',
];

echo $twig->render('index.html', $data);
