+## Template
+
+You can access other metadata fields and produce templated outputs.

+```toml

+provider = "scikit_build_core.metadata.template"
+result = {"dev" = ["{project[name]}=={project[version]}"]}
+```
+
+You can use `project` to access the current metadata values. You can reference
+other dynamic metadata fields, and they will be computed before this one. You
+can use `result` to specify the output. The result must match the type of the
+metadata field you are writing to.
