Confluence Plug-In where to define HTML code

I am new in the development of Confluence Add-Ons. I want to use the example from the API. For instance look at this Page Dialog 2, there are the HTML-Code and the JS-Code separated.

I know how to define a JS-File and how to refer to the atlassian-plugin.xml.

Look here

<web-resource key="Confluence-resources" name="Confluence-Web-Resources">
    <dependency>com.atlassian.auiplugin:ajs</dependency>
    <resource type="download" name="confluence.js" location="/js/confluence.js"/>

  </web-resource>

But where I must define the HTML-Code?

In essence, you need to render the HTML from execute method in your Macro class. But, practically speaking, there're a few "Atlassian-approved" approaches.

You might want to consider built-in Velocity templating support from VelocityUtils.getRenderedTemplate method.

Quoting Atlassian's Documentation, you can probably write something like:

public String execute(Map params, String body, RenderContext renderContext) throws MacroException {
    // do something with params ...

    Map context = MacroUtils.defaultVelocityContext();
    context.put("page", page);
    context.put("labels", labels);
    return VelocityUtils.getRenderedTemplate("com/atlassian/confluence/example/sample-velocity.vm", context);
}

In recent years, they started to promote the usage Soy Template too.
