+### Before Write option
+
+This option allows you to preprocess a file before it is being written, such as running a formatter,
+linter or other commands.
+
+To use this option, pass it the command you would like to run. The following tokens will be replaced
+in your string:
+
+- `{{path}}` - the temporary file path for you to read from
+- `{{rawpath}}` - a different file path containing the raw file contents **before** they were
+  handled by Handlebars.js.

+If none of these tokens are found, the regular (non-raw) path will be appended to the end of the
+command.
+
+```shell
+simple-scaffold -c . --before-write prettier
+# command: prettier /tmp/somefile
+
+simple-scaffold -c . --before-write 'cat {{path}} | my-linter'
+# command: cat /tmp/somefile | my-linter
+```
+
+The command should return the string to write to the file through standard output (stdout), and not
+re-write the tmp file as it is not used for writing. Returning an empty string (after trimming) will
+discard the result and write the original file contents.
+
+See
+[beforeWrite](https://chenasraf.github.io/simple-scaffold/docs/api/interfaces/ScaffoldConfig#beforewrite)
+Node.js API for more details. Instead of returning `undefined` to keep the default behavior, you can
+output `''` for the same effect.

+Usage with config file

+```
+
+Usage with GitHub config file
+
+```shell

+
+Full syntax with config path and template key (applicable to all above methods)
+
+```shell

+```
+
+Excluded template key, assumes 'default' key
+
+```shell

 etc - simply pass a config object to the Scaffold function when you are ready to start.

+### Before Write option

+This option allows you to preprocess a file before it is being written, such as running a formatter,
+linter or other commands.
+
+To use this option, you can run any async/blocking command, and return a string as the final output
+to be used as the file contents.

-| `--log-level` \| `-l`               | Determine amount of logs to display. The values are: `none \| debug \| info \| warn \| error`.

-| `--dry-run` \| `-dr`                | Don't emit files. This is good for testing your scaffolds and making sure they don't fail, without having to write actual file contents or create directories.                                                                                                             |
