Please provide either a failing minimal testcase (with a link to the code) or detailed steps to reproduce your problem. Using electron-forge init is a good starting point, if that is not the source of your problem.

Hello I have created a simple app using electron-forge init Until here if I run electron-forge start the default app appears and everything is working fine.

However in my app I want to use pug templates.To do this I have installed electron-pug using npm install --save electron-pug.

Here is the complete code of my default index.js file after adding electron-pug:

const { app, BrowserWindow } = require('electron');
const pug = require('electron-pug')({pretty:true},{});
// Keep a global reference of the window object, if you don't, the window will
// be closed automatically when the JavaScript object is garbage collected.
let mainWindow;
const createWindow = () => {
  // Create the browser window.
  mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({
    width: 800,
    height: 600,
  });
  // and load the index.html of the app.
  mainWindow.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/demo.pug`);
  // Open the DevTools.
  mainWindow.webContents.openDevTools();
  // Emitted when the window is closed.
  mainWindow.on('closed', () => {
    // Dereference the window object, usually you would store windows
    // in an array if your app supports multi windows, this is the time
    // when you should delete the corresponding element.
    mainWindow = null;
  });
};
// This method will be called when Electron has finished
// initialization and is ready to create browser windows.
// Some APIs can only be used after this event occurs.
app.on('ready', createWindow);
// Quit when all windows are closed.
app.on('window-all-closed', () => {
  // On OS X it is common for applications and their menu bar
  // to stay active until the user quits explicitly with Cmd + Q
  if (process.platform !== 'darwin') {
    app.quit();
  }
});
app.on('activate', () => {
  // On OS X it's common to re-create a window in the app when the
  // dock icon is clicked and there are no other windows open.
  if (mainWindow === null) {
    createWindow();
  }
});
// In this file you can include the rest of your app's specific main process
// code. You can also put them in separate files and import them here.

And here is the code for for demo.pug file:

doctype
html
    head
        title Nope
    body
        h1 Hello
        p  
        | Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod

Now if I run npm start which in turn calls electron-forge start my pug file won’t render and it will log the following error in my console: Pug interceptor failed: Error: The scheme has been intercepted

Here is a screenshot of my app when running npm start"

However if I runelectron src/index.js from the root of my project folder my pug file will be rendered producing the following output:

Any ideas how I can fix that.I really need to use electron-forge in some projects which use electron-pug

And here is the code for for demo.pug file

You probably want to put that code in a block so formatting, etc. are preserved.

Using electron-pug should work 🆗 in Electron Forge 6.0.0 as we don’t enable electron-compile support by default. Docs will be up soon explaining how to use 6.0.0-beta.X and you should be able to pick those up 👍
