+ # ActionController::Renderer allows to render arbitrary templates
+ # without requirement of being in controller actions.

+ # You get a concrete renderer class by invoking ActionController::Base#renderer.

+ #
+ # ApplicationController.renderer
+ #
+ # It allows you to call method #render directly.
+ #
+ # ApplicationController.renderer.render template: '...'
+ #
+ # You can use a shortcut on controller to replace previous example with:
+ #
+ # ApplicationController.render template: '...'

+ # #render method allows you to use any options as when rendering in controller.
+ # For example,
+ #
+ # FooController.render :action, locals: { ... }, assigns: { ... }
+ #
+ # The template will be rendered in a Rack environment which is accessible through
+ # ActionController::Renderer#env. You can set it up in two ways:
+ #
+ # * by changing renderer defaults, like
+ #
+ # ApplicationController.renderer.defaults # => hash with default Rack environment
+ #
+ # * by initializing an instance of renderer by passing it a custom environment.

#### Finding Layouts
To find the current layout, Rails first looks for a file in `app/views/layouts` with the same base name as the controller. For example, rendering actions from the `PhotosController` class will use `app/views/layouts/photos.html.erb` (or `app/views/layouts/photos.builder`). If there is no such controller-specific layout, Rails will use `app/views/layouts/application.html.erb` or `app/views/layouts/application.builder`. If there is no `.erb` layout, Rails will use a `.builder` layout if one exists. Rails also provides several ways to more precisely assign specific layouts to individual controllers and actions.
