I have some text stored in a variable which contains some HTML. For example, the <b>cat</b> in the hat. However, when I render it in Jade, it shows up with the tags instead of rendering the formatting. How can I fix this?

Code buffered by = is escaped by default for security, however to output unescaped return values you may use !=
p!= aVarContainingHTML

Coulnd't find this on the official pug documentation. Did they leave it out? The section on interpolation is quite short, am I blind? Thanks anyways :) – atripes Nov 05 '17 at 01:30

The syntax you need is :
!{yourJsVariable}
if you use #{yourJsVariable} it shows < >, but with !{} it doesn't.
