+    \contentspage index.html
+    \qmltype texttemplate
+    \inqmlmodule QbsModules
+    \since Qbs 1.13
+
+    \brief Provides support for text template files
+
+    The \c texttemplate module provides support for text template files.
+
+    \section2 Example
+
+    Consider the following text file \e{greeting.txt.in}.
+
+    \code
+    ${greeting} ${name}!
+    \endcode
+
+    This can be used in a project like this:
+
+    \code
+    Product {
+        type: ["text"]
+        files: ["greeting.txt.in"]
+        Depends { name: "texttemplate" }
+        texttemplate.dict: ({
+                greeting: "Hello",
+                name: "World"
+            })
+    }
+    \endcode
+
+    Which will create the file \e{greeting.txt}.
+
+    \code
+    Hello World!
+    \endcode
+
+
+    \section2 Placeholder Syntax
+
+    A placeholder \c{${foo}} is replaced by its corresponding value in
+    \e{texttemplate.dict}.
+    Placeholder names consist of alphanumeric characters only.
+
+    The placeholder \c{${$}} is always replaced with \c{$}.
+    If you need a literal \c{${foo}} in your template, use \c{${$}{foo}}.
+
+    Placeholders that are not defined in the dictionary will produce an error.
+
+
+    \section2 Relevant File Tags
