We go deeper into skills. For example, here we have the docs folder. That's the source of truth. Remember, the docs folder. In my example, I choose to work this way. I choose to use the docs folder. It works for me at the moment. But then we also have the .cloud folder here. And within the .cloud folder, we find the skills folder. And within the skills folder, we find the individual skills, such as, for example, here, the generate component skill. Now, generate component skill is right here. And that's the entire process that we prepare for that skill right there. So if we use that skill, and we tell cloud to basically solve a problem by using that skill, it basically plays this complete workflow or automation process. That's it. That's the way skills work. And this is hugely important to use at a certain point.
