Is it possible to use a template engine i.e. Pug?

[kenanyusuf]

Hey, I'm experimenting with Sandpack and I was wondering whether it's possible to use a Node template engine like Pug? Parcel seems to support Pug but after experimenting with a few different approaches I haven't been able to get it to work.

Here's my attempt: https://codesandbox.io/s/wizardly-lichterman-gy1ll?file=/src/App.js:0-892

I based the Sandpack setup above on this CodeSandbox https://codesandbox.io/s/qkp0ojk8pj?file=/package.json:271-276

Appreciate any thoughts!

Cheers

Currently we don't support any template languages, we might add this in the future

Thanks for the quick reply and for clarifying.

Just curious, are there technical limitations as to why template languages are not supported or is it just not a priority?

It's mainly not a priority right now.

It's also not a small change, to support it properly we need a better way to handle html, we can probably use iframes for it, which will likely happen at some point as we want to separate execution from bundling more anyway
