Pug, formerly known as Jade, is a high-performance template engine for Node.js and browsers. It simplifies HTML markup creation by using a clean and concise syntax that compiles into HTML. Pug supports features like template inheritance, mixins, and includes, making it easy to create reusable and maintainable templates. It also offers filters for processing text within templates, along with conditional statements and loops for dynamic content generation.
Compared to traditional HTML templating languages, Pug reduces redundancy and improves code readability with its indentation-based structure. It is actively maintained and widely used in the Node.js ecosystem, providing a robust solution for generating dynamic HTML content.
