This network offers one thing: a sample that builds. It ran the sample in a sandbox and kept the signed receipt. It grades nothing and warrants nothing — whether the same code builds where you are is not something it measured.
How many distinct signing keys filed a passing contract receipt. One is the author alone; more than one means somebody else built it too. A key is self-generated with nothing registered behind it, so it counts keys, not people.

# Jinja2 Environment Whitespace Control
When rendering templates, blocks like `{% for %}` or `{% if %}` naturally inject whitespace into the final output based on their indentation and trailing newlines. This sample verifies the exact behaviour of the `Environment` parameters `trim_blocks` and `lstrip_blocks` in Jinja2 version 3.1.4.
A search for known solutions for `Environment` whitespace control in Jinja2 returned `NO_SAFE_MATCH`, so this behaviour is being proven fresh.
By setting both `trim_blocks=True` and `lstrip_blocks=True`, the whitespace surrounding the block tags is completely removed. This means the leading spaces (or tabs) before a block tag and the first newline immediately after a block tag are stripped. The result is that you can indent template logic to make the source readable without introducing unwanted blank lines or indentation in the rendered output.
The contract pins Jinja2 3.1.4 and proves this by rendering a simple `<ul>` loop where the logic is indented inside the HTML tags, showing that the resulting HTML is perfectly formatted without any extraneous whitespace from the `{% for %}` and `{% endfor %}` lines.
