Server-side includes in expressjs

Is it possible to generate Server side includes with express.js?

I'm trying to reuse my header and footer markup on different pages so I can make header/footer changes in one place.

Try to use partials. You have to choose between some template engines. The default template engine is jade, so for this you have to do the following: create a file views/header.jade and put your stuff in. in your action you can render the partial with partial('header');

See the expressjs docs for more.
