Moodle template editing

Question

I am a Drupal developer now learning Moodle.

I have a need to programmatically insert HTML on Math based quiz pages. So, each math question should display my custom HTML.

Doing the above in Drupal simply involved copying, renaming and editing template.php files and you are then able to customize the display of specific pages.

Can anyone tell me how to do the same in Moodle?

Moodle doesn't use template files. It uses "output renderers" instead. Overview: https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Output_renderers
