Can we use Jade(Pug) as the template engine to create this invoice ? #1

You have used 'handlebars' as the template engine. It's fine. Is it ok to use Pug to make this invoice ? I mean all the fields and data table ? Then we can use a for loop like something and populate the data table. Is that possible ?

@Geex-Renzo You there ?

CherryNerd commented 7 years ago

Of course you can, I usually use EJS myself so there is no problem there at all. Just switch Handlebars out with whatever you want and keep the PDF generation intact ;)

@Geex-Renzo thanks buddy. you saved me.... I worked hard a lot. I have used Jasper Reports earlier. Anyway this is more easier than it. Because we can use HTML based languages. Do you have a startup ? I'm a 3rd year Software Engineering student from University of Westminster, UK. It's a pleasure to meet you. These days i'm working hard for GSOC 2017 :+1:

We are currently working on an open Source CMS which is almost ready to be launched. From this CMS we are going to create a development Framework. You can follow us on Twitter on @GeeX_Dev If you'd like, we can talk there so we can close this issue ;)
