+                        - Load a module that defines this flake output attribute
+                          Many modules are listed at https://flake.parts
+                        - Declare an option for this flake output attribute
+                        - Make sure the output attribute is spelled correctly
+                        - Define the value only once, with a single definition in a single module
+                    '';
+                  }
