    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>Hawksearch Handlebars UI</title>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
    <script type="text/javascript">
      var Hawksearch = Hawksearch || {};

      Hawksearch.config = {
        clientId: "f51060e1c38446f0bacdf283390c37e8"
      };
    </script>
    <script src="node_modules/@bridgeline-digital/hawksearch-handlebars-ui/dist/hawksearch-handlebars-ui.js" defer></script>
