In Sage 10 `Roots\view` is responsible for rendering:

```
view('subfolder/some-template-file', [ // no file extension (`blade.php`)
        'some_parameter' => 'test123',
    ])->render();
```

The path to the template file is relative to the `resources/views` directory of the Sage 10 theme directory.  
The constructor results in a `View` object whose `render` method returns the rendered template.

Tip: Add `use function Roots\view;` at the beginning of the PHP file so you can just use `view(...)` instead explicitly typing out the `Roots` namespace.
