Blade Alternate

Blade Alternate is a small extension to blade that adds the common operation of changing values throughout a loop. Now thats a horrible description, so heres an example:, _(*1)

@foreach($users as $user)
    <tr class="@alternate('odd', 'even')">...</tr>
@endforeach

Which would result in alternating rows of a table, with the class switching between odd and even every time. This works with any number of arguments, for example, you might see a image gallery with three columns., _(*2)

@foreach($images as $image)
    <img src="{{ $img->url }}" class="@alternate('left', 'mid', 'right')" />
@endforeach
