 # Template Applications
 
-!!! note Prerequisites
-
-    - [LangGraph Studio](./langgraph_studio.md)
-
 Templates are open source reference applications designed to help you get started quickly when building with LangGraph. They provide working examples of common agentic workflows that can be customized to your needs.
 
-Templates can be accessed via [LangGraph Studio (macOS only)](langgraph_studio.md), or cloned directly from Github. You can download LangGraph Studio and see available templates [here](https://studio.langchain.com/).
+You can create an application from a template using the LangGraph CLI.
 
-## Available templates
+!!! info "Requirements"
+
+    - Python >= 3.11
+    - [LangGraph CLI](https://langchain-ai.github.io/langgraph/cloud/reference/cli/): Requires langchain-cli[inmem] >= 0.1.58
+
+## Install the LangGraph CLI
+
+```bash
+pip install "langgraph-cli[inmem]==0.1.58" python-dotenv

+## 🌱 Create a LangGraph App
+
+To create a new app from a template, use the `langgraph new` command.
+
+```bash
+langgraph new
+```
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Review the `README.md` file in the root of your new LangGraph app for more information about the template and how to customize it.
+
+After configuring the app properly and adding your API keys, you can start the app using the LangGraph CLI:
+
+```bash
+langgraph dev 
+```
+
+See the following guides for more information on how to deploy your app:
