What does triple curly braces mean in handlebars template syntax?

For example

{{{variable}}}

I cannot find any documentation.

Thanks

Because it was originally designed to generate HTML, Handlebars escapes values returned by a {{expression}}. If you don't want Handlebars to escape a value, use the "triple-stash", {{{.
