Both templates now use a card layout with image headers and a relocated author, channel information, and metrics (favorites, views) to the card footer for improved layout consistency and readability. Also standardized image and anchor tag formats across both pages, removing inline styles and deprecated classes for cleaner, more maintainable code. Changes aim to provide a more uniform user experience and simplify future template adjustments.

the CSS to set a fixed height and applying the corresponding class to
the logo in the header, the layout becomes more predictable and
harmonious, significantly improving the user interface's appearance.
Removed several Matrix chat room links from the README and streamlined
the list of instances to enhance readability and maintain a focus on

Extended environment variables to allow for greater configurability and aligned debug mode detection with the new STRUCTABLES_DEBUG variable. Additionally, introduced command-line arguments for specifying Invidious instance URLs and unsafe iframe display settings.
The content fetching logic has been revised for fetching JSON data directly instead of scraping HTML, resulting in a more robust and efficient data extraction process. New templates accommodate the change and present a cleaner UI, including handling of iframes, downloads, and proper proxying of external resources.
HTML templates have been refactored to utilize better layout and styling while enhancing support for iframes and downloads, complete with the new ability to block iframe content from outside sources unless explicitly permitted. This security-focused feature protects end-users from potentially unsafe content.
Updated CSS to include word-wrapping rules and adjusted the article template to apply these styles to content rows, ensuring better handling of long strings without space characters and improving the readability of articles with unusual text content. No layout disruption expected.
Corrected improper nesting within for-loop structure in the article template to ensure that step content is appropriately wrapped in a div, resolving visual inconsistencies in article step display. This change maintains structured and clean output for article content.
Updated the project name and references across various files, including README, template headers, and footers to reflect the rebranding from 'Indestructables' to 'Structables'. The favicon has been removed, and the main logo updated to align with the new branding. The commit modifies links to the source code repository as part of rebranding efforts. This change creates a clear distinction from the upstream project while maintaining acknowledgments to the original sources.
