 * ContentDecorator records all output between [[begin()]] and [[end()]] calls, passes it to the given view file
 * as `$content` and then echoes rendering result.
 *
 * ```php
 * <?php ContentDecorator::begin([
 *     'viewFile' => '@app/views/layouts/base.php',
 *     'params' => [],
 *     'view' => $this,
 * ]) ?>
 *
 * some content here
 *
 * <?php ContentDecorator::end() ?>
 * ```
 *
 * There are [[\yii\base\View::beginContent()]] and [[\yii\base\View::endContent()]] wrapper methods in the
 * [[\yii\base\View]] component to make syntax more friendly. In the view these could be used as follows:
 *
 * ```php
 * <?php $this->beginContent('@app/views/layouts/base.php') ?>
 *
 * some content here
 *
 * <?php $this->endContent() ?>
 * ```
