 ## Templates
 
-Templates define a single application configration template.
-Templates are stored under the `confdir/templates` directory.
-
-Templates are written in Go's [`text/template`](http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/). 
-
-Etcd keys are treated as paths and automatically transformed into keys for retrieval in templates. Underscores are used in place of forward slashes.  _Values retrived from Etcd are never modified._  
-For example `/foo/bar` becomes `foo_bar`.
-
-`foo_bar` is accessed as `{{ .foo_bar }}`
-
-
-Example:  
-```
-$ etcdctl set /nginx/domain 'example.com'
-$ etcdctl set /nginx/root '/var/www/example_dotcom'
-$ etcdctl set /nginx/worker_processes '2'
-```
-
-
-`$ cat /etc/confd/templates/nginx.conf.tmpl`:
-```
-worker_processes {{ .nginx_worker_processes }};
-
-server {
-    listen 80;
-    server_name www.{{ .nginx_domain }};
-    access_log /var/log/nginx/{{ .nginx_domain }}.access.log;
-    error_log /var/log/nginx/{{ .nginx_domain }}.log;
-
-    location / {
-        root   {{ .nginx_root }};
-        index  index.html index.htm;
-    }
-}
-```
-
-Will produce `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf`:
-```
-worker_processes 2;
-
-server {
-    listen 80;
-    server_name www.example.com;
-    access_log /var/log/nginx/example.com.access.log;
-    error_log /var/log/nginx/example.com.error.log;
-
-    location / {
-        root   /var/www/example_dotcom;
-        index  index.html index.htm;
-    }
-}
-```
-
-Go's [`text/template`](http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/) package is very powerful. For more details on it's capabilities see its [documentation.](http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/)
