# Examples
* Create a flake using the default template:
```console
# nix flake init
```
* List available templates:
```console
# nix flake show templates
```
* Create a flake from a specific template:
```console
# nix flake init -t templates#simpleContainer
```
# Description
This command creates a flake in the current directory by copying the
files of a template. It will not overwrite existing files. The default
template is `templates#templates.default`, but this can be overridden
using `-t`.
# Template definitions
A flake can declare templates through its `templates` output
attribute. A template has two attributes:
* `description`: A one-line description of the template, in CommonMark
syntax.
* `path`: The path of the directory to be copied.
* `welcomeText`: A block of markdown text to display when a user initializes a
new flake based on this template.
Here is an example:
```
outputs = { self }: {
templates.rust = {
path = ./rust;
description = "A simple Rust/Cargo project";
welcomeText = ''
# Simple Rust/Cargo Template
## Intended usage
The intended usage of this flake is...

};
templates.default = self.templates.rust;
