-# Hatchbox Exports Env Vars With asdf
-
-When you add env vars through the [Hatchbox](https://hatchbox.io/) UI, they get
-exported to the environment of the asdf-shimmed processes. This is handled by
-the [`asdf-vars` plugin](https://github.com/excid3/asdf-vars). That plugin
-looks for `.asdf-vars` in the current chain of directories.
-
-I can see there are many `.asdf-vars` files:
-
-```bash
-$ find . -name ".asdf-vars" -type f
-./.asdf-vars
-./my-app/.asdf-vars
-./my-app/releases/20250120195106/.asdf-vars
-./my-app/releases/20250121041054/.asdf-vars
-```
-
-And it is the one in my app's directory that contains the env vars that I set
-in the UI.
-
-```bash
-$ cat my-app/.asdf-vars
-BUNDLE_WITHOUT=development:test
-DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user_123:123456789012345@10.0.1.1/my_app_db
-PORT=9000
-RACK_ENV=production
-RAILS_ENV=production
-RAILS_LOG_TO_STDOUT=true
-RAILS_MASTER_KEY=abc123
-SECRET_KEY_BASE=abc123efg456
-```
-
-When I run a shimmed process like `ruby`, those env vars are loaded into the
-process's environment.
-
-```bash
-$ cd my-app/current
-$ which ruby
-/home/deploy/.asdf/shims/ruby
-$ ruby -e "puts ENV['DATABASE_URL']"
-postgresql://user_123:123456789012345@10.0.1.1/my_app_db

-# Apply Basic HTML Formatting To Block Of Text
-
-My Rails app has a form that allows a user to enter in free-form text. I enter
-in a couple paragraphs and save the record. It is rendered on a show page with
-a couple lines of ERB like so:
-
-```ruby
-<div class="max-w-3xl mx-auto">
-  <div class="space-y-4">
-    <div class="prose mt-8 text-gray-700">
-      <%= @record.notes %>
-    </div>
-  </div>
-</div>
-```
-
-When I view the erb-displayed version of that record's text, all those
-carefully spaced paragraphs are clumped together. That is because those newline
-(`\n` and `\n\n`) characters while understood to be whitespace do not have
-formatting implications in the browser like a combination of HTML tags and CSS
-do.
-
-I can apply some basic formatting with [the aptly named `simple_format` method
-available as an `ActionView`
-helper](https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/TextHelper.html#method-i-simple_format).
-
-```ruby
-<div class="max-w-3xl mx-auto">
-  <div class="space-y-4">
-    <div class="prose mt-8 text-gray-700">
-      <%= simple_format(@record.notes) %>
-    </div>
-  </div>
-</div>
-```
-
-This turns single `\n` characters into a `<br />` tag and double `\n\n` cause
-the surrounding paragraphs to be wrapped in `<p>` tags. That simple formatting
-combined with my existing TailwindCSS styles makes the formatting of my text
-immediately look much better.
