${1:$TM_FILENAME_BASE}

Welcome to Foam templates.

What you see in the heading is a placeholder

• it allows you to quickly move through positions of the new note by pressing TAB, e.g. to easily fill fields
• a placeholder optionally has a default value, which can be some text or, as in this case, a variable
  • when landing on a placeholder, the default value is already selected so you can easily replace it
• a placeholder can define a list of values, e.g.: ${2|one,two,three|}
• you can use variables even outside of placeholders, here is today’s date: ${CURRENT_YEAR}/${CURRENT_MONTH}/${CURRENT_DATE}

For a full list of features see the VS Code snippets page.
