I don't think ExpressWorks has been updated for Pug yet - it's still using Jade. Remove the path code (lines 3-4), change the view engine to Jade, and then change 'index' to process.argv[3] to let Expressworks point at the template you need.

var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.set('view engine', 'jade');
app.set('views', process.argv[3]);
app.get('/home', function (req, res) {
  res.render('index', { date: new Date().toDateString() });
});

app.listen(process.argv[2]);

Please reply back with any errors.
