The view is an alternative layout and should be a file name that points to a template in one of the locations specified in the documentation for [Content Views](/templates/views).

This function is only available when applied to a single piece of content within a [list context].

This example could render a piece of content using the content view located at `/layouts/_default/summary.html`:

```
{{ range .Pages }}
    {{ .Render "summary"}}
{{ end }}
```

[list context]: /templates/lists/
