Is this plugin obsolete when using jade, which has its own partial (mixin) implementation?

[timaschew]

In jade you can do this: http://jade-lang.com/reference/mixins/

No reason why you couldn't use both.

[timaschew]

but what is the difference?
expect that in jade is parsed before docoad do it (or what is the order?)

[timaschew]

I've creted a template in jade for the menu plugin: https://github.com/sergeche/docpad-plugin-menu
It works with the jade mixins without the partial plugin.

So my suggestion is to put a note on the Readme, that you don't need this plugin when you using jade.
When it's okay I can create a PR.

I'd say the same statement applies for using any templating engine that supports partials/includes, such as swig.

Hey @timaschew.
I'd say it's fine to do a PR with the disclaimer.
Good for people to have and know of options. 👍
