 ## Use
 
-Use the following [Quarto CLI](https://quarto.org/) command to install the theme.
+Depending on your use-case, here are some [Quarto CLI](https://quarto.org/) to
+get you started.
+
+If you would like to add the **clean** theme to an existing directory:
 
 ```bash
 quarto install extension grantmcdermott/quarto-revealjs-clean
 ```
 
-Once the theme is installed, use one of the following templates for a quick start.
+Alternatively, you can use a
+[Quarto template](https://quarto.org/docs/extensions/starter-templates.html)
+that bundles the **clean** theme plus a .qmd starter document. This is a better
+option if you are starting a new project from scratch, since it will automatically
+create a new directory with all of the necessary scaffolding in one go. We provide
+two template options.
