# Templating

Templating is powered by Twig. You can create templates in the templates directory that was created when you called docski init.

By default all doc files will use the index.twig template. You can change what template they use by setting the layout front-matter to the path of the template (without the file extension, relative to the templates root). i.e. to use the templates/blog/post.twig template, you would set layout to blog/post.

Syntax highlighting is powered by highlight.js so you'll want to include your chosen themes CSS in your templates if you have any code that needs highlighting.

# Template Variables

The following variables are passed to each template:

# data

This contains all the front-matter that was set in the markdown file.

# nav

Contains an iterable object of the entire docs navigation where the key is the title of the file or folder, and the value is either the path to the file or the children of the folder.

# toc

• content - The content of the heading
• anchor - The headings anchor
• level - The level of the heading (1-3)
