How do I display todays date in Node.js Jade?

You can use moment.js

First, add moment to your express application locals

express = require('express');
...
app = express();
app.locals.moment = require('moment');

Then you can use moment within a jade template like this:

p #{moment(Date.now()).format('MM/DD/YYYY')}

Moment takes Date.now() by default, so yo can also write:

p #{moment().format('MM/DD/YYYY')}
