[scaffolder] Link to documentation of a template if it exists in TemplateCard
See original GitHub issueI’ve created documentation for a template (just local dev for now), and it’d be nice if that doc would be linked from http://localhost:3000/create/
Feature Suggestion
Add link to documentation for scaffolder templates. This would help in cases where you want to share more context about what a template would be good for. Say you have a few dashboard templates, and you want to explain to a data science engineer which to use.
Possible Implementation
Similar to the VCS source location, optionally link to the documentation of a template in TemplateCard.
