Express template engines let you plug in support for templating languages like Pug (AKA Jade), Handlebars, or anything else. Here's how you can use existing templating engines, or write your own.

Template engines allow you to configure Express to work seamlessly with popular templating engines, like Pug, Mustache, and others. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to add Pug as a template engine, as well as how to write your own minimal template engine that enables Express to work with Vue's server-side rendering.

Using Pug

Pug (formerly known as Jade) is one of the most popular templating engines for Express. Pug is a whitespace-sensitive HTML templating language that supports loops and conditionals. For example, below is some valid Pug code:

h1
  | Hello, #{name}!

Suppose the above code is in the views/test.pug file. Below is how you can use Express to render test.pug for you. Note the app.set('view engine', 'pug') call is how you tell Express to use Pug for templating. The string 'pug' refers to the npm module you want to use as your template engine.
