Summary

The CLI now supports creating projects from pre-defined templates via mint new --template. The core flag documentation was already in place, but this PR adds:

  • How to combine --template with --theme to override a template's default theme
  • A link to the templates source repository so users can browse available templates
  • Updated wording to match the CLI's interactive prompts ("pick a theme" / "clone a template")

Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only updates that adjust wording and add usage guidance; no runtime or behavioral changes to the CLI.

Overview
Updates mint new docs to reflect the interactive flow as pick a theme or clone a template, and links templates to the mintlify/templates GitHub repo.

Expands cli/install.mdx with an example showing --template + --theme to override a template’s default theme, plus a note that available templates are fetched/displayed automatically in interactive mode.
