Tag Support

Tag	Purpose
`<% %>`	Scriptlet — executes JavaScript, no output
`<%= %>`	Escaped output
`<%- %>`	Unescaped output
`<%# %>`	Comment — not executed, not rendered
`<%_ %>`	Whitespace-slurping scriptlet
`-%>`	Trims trailing newline
`_%>`	Trims trailing whitespace

Requirements

VS Code 1.116.0 or later. No additional dependencies.

Extension Settings

This extension has no configurable settings.

Known Issues

EJS tags inside HTML comments () are not colorized. The HTML grammar applies a flat comment color across the entire comment region, which overrides EJS token colors. This is a limitation of how VS Code layers TextMate grammars and does not affect functionality.
