Lovelace: Decluttering Card

The repo seems to be abandoned.
Although the card works fine in most of cases, there are issues on GitHub and I do not observe any reaction from the Author.
Will be happy to be wrong here.

Found a new bug - Passing a jinjia template causes an error · Issue #60 · custom-cards/decluttering-card · GitHub

It is related to a “pass a template as a variable” case:

  decl_test_var_template:
    default:
      - VALUE: xxx
    card:
      type: markdown
      content: '[[VALUE]]'
type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: custom:decluttering-card
    template: decl_test_var_template
    variables:
      - VALUE: '{{ states(''sun.sun'') }}'
  - type: custom:decluttering-card
    template: decl_test_var_template
    variables:
      - VALUE: >-
          {{ states('sun.sun') }}
  - type: custom:decluttering-card
    template: decl_test_var_template
    variables:
      - VALUE: >-
          {% if false -%}
          {{states('zone.home')}}
          {%- else -%}
          {{states('sun.sun')}}
          {%- endif %}
  - type: custom:decluttering-card
    template: decl_test_var_template
    variables:
      - VALUE: >-
          {% if false -%}
            {{states('zone.home')}}
          {%- else -%}
            {{states('sun.sun')}}
          {%- endif %}

Update:
found a solution / workaround:

    type: custom:decluttering-card
    template: decl_test_var_template
    variables:
      - VALUE: "
          {% if false -%}
            {{states('zone.home')}}
          {%- else -%}
            {{states('sun.sun')}}
          {%- endif %}
          "
