Jade is a template engine for node.js and the default rendering engine for the Express web framework. It is a new, simplified language that compiles into HTML and is extremely useful for web developers. Jade is designed primarily for server-side templating in node.js, but it can also be used in a variety of other environments to produce XML-like documents such as HTML and RSS.
This practical, example-oriented guide will teach you how to write Jade, utilize its features, and recognize the best ways to organize templates in your projects. With this book, you will avoid the common pitfalls and issues with sparse documentation, allowing you to learn Jade faster and use it more effectively.
To understand Jade, we will first examine the reasons for its design and how these translate into a tool that can provide real benefits to you. You will develop confidence with each of the features of the language with the help of practical examples and thorough explanations. We will cover preprocessors, basic syntax, feeding data into templates, and incorporating logic. By the end of this book, you will be able to effectively use essential features such as filters and mixins as well as template inheritance through a block system. To tie it all together, we will also look at some of the best practices to follow when organizing your Jade projects.
Use this comprehensive guide to the Jade language to help you become a more efficient web developer.

Sean Lang attends the Milwaukee School of Engineering; he is currently majoring in software engineering. Even though he is a freshman there, he is by no means new to the field. He has been teaching himself software development for the last four years, and during this time, he has done extensive volunteer work for open source software projects. These include roots (a toolkit for building web apps), the Jade template engine, nib (a set of utilities for advanced web page styling), and a myriad of smaller projects. In addition to this, he has been doing freelance web designing and consulting, which is especially convenient because it gives him an opportunity to use the open source tools that he has been developing in production. He started writing this book about Jade to supplement the existing documentation and help teach people the language. Also, he had never written a full book before, so he was really interested and excited to know what being an author is like.
Fco. Javier Velasco Arjona is a passionate full stack engineer and aspiring web craftsman from Crdoba, Spain. He's currently working as a developer at imixme.com and mindster.org. Previously he was working with floqq.com. As he has a restless mind, he constantly finds himself switching between JavaScript, Ruby, and Python, always trying to build great products with the trendiest technologies. When Javier is not coding, he enjoys watching films and TV series, reading comic books, listening to music, and of course, spending time with his family and friends.
I wish to thank my family, especially my parents, for all the support that I have received from them my whole life. Without their help, I do not know where I would be now, but I'm pretty sure that I would be in a very different place.
Thanks to the folks at Packt Publishing for allowing me to collaborate by being a technical reviewer on this book. And finally, many thanks to my girlfriend, Laura. She has made me a better person, and truly happy, day by day, these three years.
Dan Williams has been programming since high school. Having worked from the microcontroller level to large-scale enterprise applications, he has now found a home as lead developer at Igniter.
Developing with Node.js in the backend and with AngularJS in the browser, he enjoys being fully immersed in JavaScript. He can often be found giving talks and facilitating workshops on emerging technologies around Toronto. When he is not working with his team to help social entrepreneurs change our world, he enjoys traveling to far off places with his wife. The highlight of their adventures was a two-week driving trip around Iceland.

, What is Jade? , gives you the idea behind preprocessors and why Jade is awesome. Also, you will learn the process Jade uses to compile templates, and how to install/use Jade.
, Basic Syntax , covers the very basics of the syntax. This includes how indentation-based syntaxes work, how to write tags, text, attributes, comments, and some nifty shorthands for classes, IDs, and doctypes.
, Feeding Data into Templates , covers both the syntax used to output variables (such as interpolation) and how to actually send the data to the renderer.
, Logic in Templates , introduces flow control structures such as if, else, case, for, and while. Also, we discuss adding more advanced logic using raw JavaScript.
, Filters , introduces you the first "feature" of the Jade languagefiltersa way to automatically compile other preprocessed languages (such as Stylus, Markdown, or CoffeeScript) directly in templates.
