This is an attempt at collecting useful, reusable templates so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel.

While you may just copy & paste these templates to your own space, the most convenient ways to use them is using [[Federation]]. This will synchronize these templates into your space and make them available for use instantly.

To set this up, add the following this to your [[SETTINGS]]:

```yaml
federate:
- uri: silverbullet.md/template
```

If you don’t want to sync _all_ these templates, you can use more specific URIs, e.g.
```yaml
federate:
- uri: silverbullet.md/template/page/
```
to just get the page templates, for instance.

To reference a template, use the [[Federation]] syntax, e.g. `[[!silverbullet.md/template/task]]`.

# Page Templates
Use these [[Page Templates]] with the {[Page: From Template]} command.

```query
template where type = "page" render [[template/documented-template]]
```

# Slash Templates
These can be used as [[Slash Templates]]:

```query
template where type = "slash" render [[template/documented-template]]
```

# Live Templates
Use these as `page` in [[Live Templates]].

```query
template
where type = "live"
order by order
render [[template/documented-template]]
```

# Live Query
Use these in your `render` clauses in [[Live Queries]].

```query
template
where type = "query"
order by order
render [[template/documented-template]]
```
