+# Examples
+
+* Create a flake using the default template in the directory `hello`:
+
+ ```console
+ # nix flake new hello
+ ```
+
+* List available templates:
+
+ ```console
+ # nix flake show templates
+ ```
+
+* Create a flake from a specific template in the directory `hello`:
+
+ ```console
+ # nix flake new hello -t templates#trivial
+ ```
+
+# Description
+
+This command creates a flake in the directory `dest-dir`, which must
+not already exist. It's equivalent to:
+
+```console
+# mkdir dest-dir
+# cd dest-dir
+# nix flake init
+```
