44   * Used on a Spring Web MVC controller to expose it as a template. A template is either used to render a page or a
45   * component.
46   * <p/>
47   * The title of the template is set with this annotation while the description is set using
48   * {@link info.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation.TemplateDescription}.
49   * <p/>
50   * A component is added to a page using a dialog. A controller that uses this annotation automatically becomes a factory
51   * for its dialog. This dialog is automatically assigned an id and you do not need to add the
52   * {@link info.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation.DialogFactory} annotation. The functionality for creating the dialog
53   * is identical to the functionality of classes that use {@link info.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation.DialogFactory}.
54   * More specifically you can use {@link TabFactory} and {@link TabOrder}.
55   * <p/>
56   * If you prefer using a dialog created by a {@link DialogFactory} or one configured in Magnolia you can override this
57   * behaviour by setting the 'dialog' field.
58   * <p/>
59   * The class will also be scanned for methods annotated with {@link DialogFactory}. This makes it possible to declare
60   * dialogs in the same template that they're used for.
61   * <p/>
62   * It is possible to restrict on which pages a template can be used by using the
63   * {@link info.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation.Available} annotation.
64   * <p/>
65   * You can use {@link info.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation.I18nBasename} to specify which resource bundle should be
66   * used for localization of the template's title and description.
67   * <p/>
68   * For example this template will be exposed with the id "mainTemplate":
69   * <pre>
70   * &#64;Controller
71   * &#64;Template(title = "Main", id = "moduleName:pages/main")
72   * public class MainTemplate {
73   *
74   *   &#64;RequestMapping("/mainTemplate")
75   *   public String render() {
76   *     return "mainTemplate.jsp";
77   *   }
78   *
79   *   &#64;TabFactory("Content")
80   *   public void contentTab(UiConfig cfg, TabBuilder tab) {
81   *      tab.fields(cfg.fields.richText("body").label("Text"));
82   *   }
83   * }
84   * </pre>
