## README
better_html (DEPRECATED)
> This project is no longer actively maintained. It has been superseded by the tools and guidance available at **https://herb-tools.dev/**.
## Deprecation Notice
`better_html` served to introduce HTML-aware ERB parsing and runtime safety validations for Rails templates. We are sunsetting further development and recommend migrating to the modern ecosystem and practices documented at:
https://herb-tools.dev/
Key improvements you'll find there:
* Updated guidance for template safety and escaping
* Modern alternatives and linters
* Consolidated tooling replacing this gem's runtime checks
* Actively maintained documentation and examples
## What does this mean?
* No new features will be added here.
* Only critical security issues may receive patches (best-effort, not guaranteed).
* Issues and PRs may be closed without merge if they introduce new functionality.
## Should I remove the gem?
You can continue using the last released version, but you should plan a migration. Start by reviewing the concepts on herb-tools.dev and introducing the recommended tooling alongside or in place of `better_html`.
## Historical Documentation
