# Prompt Template

Reusable prompt structures with placeholders for dynamic content. Enable consistent outputs across different inputs. Best practices: Clear role definition, structured output formats, few-shot examples. LangChain, Guidance, and LMQL offer template engines. Difference from ad-hoc prompts: Versionable, testable, optimizable.
