+### Template functions
+Besides the [built-in template functions](https://pkg.go.dev/text/template) in golang, skaffold also provides the following ones:
+- `default` : Default values can be specified using the `{{default "bar" .FOO}}` expression syntax, which results in "bar" if .FOO is nil or a zero value.
+- `cmd`: This allows users to use the result from external commands in template, for example `{{cmd "bash" "-c" "xxx xxx xxx"}}` can be used to execute bash script and get the result into the template.
