+for both a [text/template.Template] (import-aliased as `txtT.Template`) and
+an [html/template.Template] (import-aliased as `htmlT.Template`).
+
+	import (
+		"fmt"

+		htmlT "html/template"
+
+		`r00t2.io/goutils/tplx`

+	)

+	const hTplStr string = `<!DOCTYPE html>
+	<html lang="en">
+		<head>
+			<meta charset="utf-8">
+			<title>Hello, {{ .Name }}!</title>
+		</head>
+		<body>
+			<p>Hello, {{ .Name }}. Good to see you.</p>
+		</body>
+	</html>
+	`
+
+	func main() {
+		var err error
+		var s string
+		var o *S
+
+		o = &S{
+			Name: "Bob",
+		}
+
+		// A text template.
+		if tTpl, err = txtT.
+			New("my_txt_template").
+			Parse(tTplStr); err != nil {
+			log.Panicf("Failed to parse text template string '%s': %v\n", tTplStr, err)
+		}
+		if s, err = tplx.TplToStr[*txtT.Template](tTpl, o); err != nil {
+			log.Panicf("Failed to render text template to string: %v\n", err)
+		}
+		fmt.Println(s)
+
+		// An HTML template.
+		if hTpl, err = htmlT.
+			New("index.html").
+			Parse(hTplStr); err != nil {
+			log.Panicf("Failed to parse HTML template string '%s': %v\n", hTplStr, err)
+		}
+		if s, err = tplx.TplToStr[*htmlT.Template](hTpl, o); err != nil {
+			log.Panicf("Failed to render HTML template to string: %v\n", err)
+		}
+		fmt.Println(s)
+	}
+
+Additionally, because this function uses a union type [Template],
+you can even leave the type indicator off.
+For example:
+
+	// ...
+	if s, err = tplx.TplToStr(tTpl, o); err != nil {
+		log.Panicf("Failed to render text template to string: %v\n", err)
+	}

+	if s, err = tplx.TplToStr(hTpl, o); err != nil {
+		log.Panicf("Failed to render HTML template to string: %v\n", err)
+	}
+	// ...
+
+However, this is not recommended for readability purposes - including
+the type indicator indicates (heh heh) to others reading your code
+what type `tTpl` and `hTpl` are without needing to cross-reference
+their declaration/assignment/definition.
