## Installation
 | 
			
		||||
This library parses HTML, embeds the contents of local assets that are referenced within that HTML, and returns a new inlined HTML string.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```sh
 | 
			
		||||
npm install inline-html
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
The following HTML elements and CSS data types are inlined:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- Images - The source path is replaced with a datauri.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- Linked LESS stylesheets - The LESS is compiled and the result is inlined within a `<style>` element. Note that `@imports` are processed as well.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- CSS url data types - The reference path is replaced with a datauri. These can be used in linked stylesheets, style elements, and element style attributes.
 | 
			
		||||
