So what I want is to put some multiline HTML into a Pug file and can't find anywhere how to do this.
Example:
html
head
body
<div><a href="lala"> blabla </a></div>
p hihuhohoo
Pug text can include HTML. Just force it as text, and it should parse:
html
head
body
| <div><a href="lala"> blabla </a></div>
p hihuhohoo
Also, you were using backslashes, not forward slashes, to close elements.
