Can PUG be used with regular HTML syntax?

Question

HTML

Good morning. I found out right now that PUG understands regular HTML syntax and the question is: "Can I use PUG with regular HTML syntax?"

In general, I like PUG, many people know it, so there are fewer problems with support if the project gets to someone else, but I don’t like the indented syntax, but all sorts of conditions, includes, loops, etc. they are good enough.

Actually the main question: Is it possible to mix the syntax? All html should be written in the usual syntax, but the constructions of conditions, cycles in the PUG syntax?

Example:

- var user = { description: 'foo bar baz' }
- var authorised = false
<div id="user">
  if user.description
    <h2 class="green">Description</h2>
    <p class="description">#{user.description}</p>
  else if authorised
    <h2 class="blue">Description</h2>
    <p class="description">User has no description, why not add one...</p>
  else
    <h2 class="red">Description</h2>
    <p class="description">User has no description</p>
</div>

How would you react to this if such a project came across? Does it make sense? Maybe it's easier to use TWIG right away? In general, your opinion is of interest.

Well, if so, then I would use react, and not crutches that mimic it ..
