+# Foam Note Templates
+
+Foam includes note templates! This allows you to create new notes from the given template.
+Templates are treated just like snippets allowing you to use [VS Code's Snippet Syntax](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/userdefinedsnippets#_snippet-syntax).
+Below you can see an example showing a todo list and a timestamp.
+
+## Todo List
+
+1. ${1:First tabstop}
+2. ${2:A second tabstop}
+3. ${3:A third tabstop}
+
+Note Created: ${CURRENT_YEAR}${CURRENT_MONTH}${CURRENT_DATE}
+
+---
+
+Try out the above example by running the `Foam: Create New Note From Template` command and selecting the `your-first-template` template. Notice what happens when your new note is created!
