->render() not evaluating Blade syntax

[qrazi]

I could not find an existing issue, and I could not find that I'm using incorrect syntax. When I want to have a template rendered manually to output, in this case for an Ajax-request, I would assume the following would work:

$content = view('name-of-template')->render();

It does however not evaluate Blade-syntax like {{ 'Foo' }}. The $content contains the literal string {{ 'Foo' }}.

I did use a hacky way to get it rendered properly:

$model = \WP_Blade_Main_Model::make();
$absolute_path = get_template_directory().'/name-of-template.php';
$rendered_path = $model->template_include_blade($absolute_path);
include($rendered_path);

This seems however not exactly the best approach. Am I right in assuming ->render() should work in this situation?
