Is it possible to compile .pug to .php with Gulp?

Question

Pug

If so, how? Should this be done somehow?)) Otherwise, pug turns out to be somehow of little use ...

Answer 1

var pug = require('gulp-pug');

gulp.task('pug', function() {
  return gulp.src('app/pug/**/*.pug')
   .pipe( pug({pretty: true}) )
   .pipe(rename(function (path) {
      path.extname = ".php"
    }))
  .pipe(gulp.dest('app/'))
  .pipe(browserSync.reload({stream: true}));
  
});

Answer 2

pug is a regular jade, just a different name, renamed due to a complaint from another brand.
As a result, all the same chips that jade had were available to him.
I currently have a bunch of gulp-pug and gulp-jade-php plugins (while it works).
