EJS (Embedded JavaScript) is a template engine for Node.js that lets you generate HTML using plain JavaScript embedded in templates. It integrates with the Express view system and supports includes, caching, custom delimiters, and client-side rendering.
Use cases
- render html pages from node.js server
- use a template engine with express
- generate html emails from templates
- server-side render views with embedded javascript
- share partial templates with includes
When to choose
- you want a simple, minimal templating syntax with plain JavaScript
- you are using Express and need a compatible view engine
- you need client-side template compilation
When to avoid
- you want logic-less templates like Handlebars
- you need the actively maintained v2 line, which lives in mde/ejs
- you need built-in sandboxing or security isolation of template code
