import Hello from "./templates/hello.marko";

const app = Fastify().register(markoPlugin);

app.get('/', (req: any, reply: any) => {
  reply.marko(Hello, {})
})

app.listen(3000, (err: any) => {
  if (err) throw err
  console.log(`server listening`)

To load Marko on the server side it needs to be transpiled. You need to either use a bundler for the server, like In our webpack-fastify example, or use the marko/node-require hook, as mentioned in the express guide.
