# Directive: extend
Jael supports template inheritance by means of `extend` and `block`.
Note the following example:
```html
{{ title }} - My App
Hello, {{ user.name }}!
```
To extend a layout, instead of the file containing an `` node, create a file with an `` node. The `src` attribute should point to the correct file. Then, add `` tags that will replace the corresponding `` tags declared in the parent file.
