Pug: Detailed Overview & Metrics
Pug, formerly known as Jade, is a high-performance template engine for Node.js and browsers. It simplifies HTML code writing by using indentation to define the structure, making templates more concise and readable. Pug supports features like mixins, includes, and filters, enabling code reusability and modularity. It also provides powerful control structures and expressions for dynamic content generation.
Compared to traditional HTML templating languages, Pug offers a more elegant and expressive syntax. It is actively maintained and widely used in the Node.js ecosystem for generating HTML content efficiently. Alternatives like EJS and Handlebars provide similar functionality but with different syntax and features.
