title: Is there anything in PHP like middleman in Ruby?
body: <p>I've been on a project with a buddy who is leading us with Middleman. We are coding in HAML and SASS and he's obviously a Ruby Dev. I'd like to know if there's ANY type of equivalent for PHP? I'm going to eventually lead a team and I'm much more comfortable with PHP than Ruby. </p>
  
  <p>I'd like to have a layout file (like Zend's layout file)
  I'd like to...at one command, convert all of the source files from PHP to static HTML and place those static files in a 'build' folder so we can hand it over to the client. </p>
  
  <p>Anyone know of some cool things out there to make this happen? Thanks a bunch!</p>
