How to I get rid of Jade while using Express with Node.JS? I want to just use plain html. In other articles I have seen that people recommended app.register() which is now deprecated in the latest version.
You can do it this way:
Install ejs:
npm install ejs
Set your template engine in app.js as ejs
// app.js
app.engine('html', require('ejs').renderFile);
app.set('view engine', 'html');
Now in your route file you can assign template variables
// ./routes/index.js
exports.index = function(req, res){
res.render('index', { title: 'ejs' });};
Then you can create your html view in /views directory.
