To customize the printing of the JSON, pass an options map as the first
argument. Supported options are "prefix" and "indent". Each JSON element in
the output will begin on a new line beginning with *prefix* followed by one or
more copies of *indent* according to the indentation nesting.

```go-html-template
{{ dict "title" .Title "content" .Plain | jsonify }}
{{ dict "title" .Title "content" .Plain | jsonify (dict "indent" "  ") }}
{{ dict "title" .Title "content" .Plain | jsonify (dict "prefix" " " "indent" "  ") }}
```

## Options

indent
: (`string`) Indentation to use. Default is "".

prefix
: (`string`) Indentation prefix. Default is "".

noHTMLEscape
: (`bool`) Whether to disable escaping of problematic HTML characters inside JSON quoted strings. The default behavior is to escape `&`, `<`, and `>` to `\u0026`, `\u003c`, and `\u003e` to avoid certain safety problems that can arise when embedding JSON in HTML. Default is `false`.
