Is there an equivalent function in Twig to PHP's extract?

I am in the process of converting several websites from a raw PHP templating system over to Twig. One problem I have hit is how to convert templates where the PHP extract function is used. Any thoughts on how to handle this?

EDIT: not actually the correct solution to OP's problem, but this came up when I searched, before I remembered the solution, so posting it in case it helps anyone.

The with tag is functionally equivalent to a scoped extract() which can be used within a template.

https://twig.symfony.com/doc/3.x/tags/with.html

{% set example_array = {foo: 'bar'} %}

{% with example_array %}
    {{ foo }}
{% endwith %}

Pass the array that you would otherwise call extract() on to twig's render function, in the end it will behave exactly like you need - the array's keys as the variable names.
