 For this tutorial we will use a PHP implementation of [Mustache](https://github.com/bobthecow/mustache.php). So install that package before you continue.
 
-Other well known alternatives would be [Twig](http://twig.sensiolabs.org/) or [Smarty](http://www.smarty.net/), but they are both pretty bloated and offer too much functionality for just a template engine.
+Another well known alternative would be [Twig](http://twig.sensiolabs.org/).
 
 Now please go and have a look at the source code of the [engine class](https://github.com/bobthecow/mustache.php/blob/master/src/Mustache/Engine.php). As you can see, the class does not implement an interface.

 Let's fix that now. In this chapter we will create a menu with links to all our pages.
 
+For a start we will just send a hardcoded array to the template. Go to you `Homepage` controller and change your `$data` array to this:
+
+```php
+$data = [
+    'name' => $this->request->getParameter('name', 'stranger'),
+    'menuItems' => ['href' => '/', 'text' => 'Homepage'],
+];
+```
+
+Now add the following at the top of your `Homepage.mustache` file:
+
+```
+{{#menuItems}}
+    <a href="{{ href }}">{{ text }}</a><br>
+{{/menuItems}}
+```
+
+Now if you navigate to your homepage, you should see a link at the top.
+
+So far so good. But now we realize that we want to reuse this code snippet on every page. We could create a separate file and include it every time, but there is a better solution.
