Jade4J
A Java implementation of the Pug template engine that processes templates without requiring JavaScript.
What is Jade4J?
Jade4j (now renamed to Pug4j) is a Java implementation of the Pug template engine that allows developers to process Pug templates directly in Java applications without requiring a JavaScript environment. It solves the problem of using Pug's concise, whitespace-sensitive syntax in Java-based web projects while maintaining full compatibility with the original Pug syntax.
Java developers building web applications who want to use Pug templates for server-side rendering, particularly those working with Spring, Jooby, or Vert.x frameworks.
Developers choose Jade4j because it provides native Java performance with 3-4x faster expression evaluation using JEXL, maintains full Pug syntax compatibility, and offers seamless integration with popular Java web frameworks without JavaScript runtime dependencies.
