Pug, formerly known as Jade, is a high-performance template engine for Node.js and browsers that simplifies HTML markup creation. It offers a clean and concise syntax with indentation-based structure, making it easy to write and maintain templates. Pug supports features like template inheritance, mixins, and includes, allowing for code reuse and modularization.
Compared to traditional HTML, Pug reduces redundancy and improves code readability by eliminating the need for closing tags and using concise syntax for attributes. It is actively maintained and widely used in the Node.js ecosystem for generating dynamic HTML content efficiently.
