## Scope
- Templates define how to create a new note using Templater; for example, allows definition of a quick action that creates a new note in a specific location, with a templatized title, and templated content.
- A capture allows you to quickly add content to predefined files, like adding a link to an open file to a Day cluster note under a particular section.
- Macros allow you to combine captures and templates into a chained workflow, often using an assigned hotkey.
- Multi choices are organizational so you can have folders of other choices.
- QuickAdd format syntax is available for all choices.
