HTML to Pug Converter — Turn Your Tag Soup into Clean Indented Magic 🍜✨

If you’ve ever stared at a jungle of <div> tags and thought, “There has to be a better way!” — congratulations, you’re ready to meet Pug 😎.

HTML is amazing, but let’s be honest — it can get messy real fast. Between opening tags, closing tags, attributes, and nested elements, it’s easy to lose track of what’s what. That’s where Pug comes in — a beautiful, indentation-based syntax that lets you write the same HTML with half the code and zero eye strain 👀.

And with the HTML to Pug Converter from DevUtilX, you can instantly transform your old HTML files into sleek, modern Pug templates — all in one click ⚡


🧠 What Is Pug (and Why Should You Care)?

Pug (formerly known as Jade) is a template engine that simplifies HTML by removing unnecessary brackets and closing tags. It’s built for developers who love speed, readability, and clean code.

Here’s what it looks like:

HTML:

Hello World


This is a Pug test

Pug:

.card

h2 Hello World

p This is a Pug test

No closing tags. No quotes. Just clean, readable indentation. It’s like HTML went through a detox retreat 🌿.
