fastpug v0.0.4

fast-pug

When you use jade for client side (like with angular), you don't always need dynamic features or fancy features that jade provided. This is where fast-pug comes in. If you use gulp, you can use gulp-fast-pug.

installation:

• for python sudo pip install jade
• for nodejs npm install fast-pug

fast-pug: 2.348ms
jadejs/jade: 3190.300ms

• experimental '.' block support, Eg. script.
• < one liner html tags will keep as is
