-> Creating a custom query is optional, and the [`github/codeql`](https://github.com/github/codeql) repository contains a large number of example queries you can use instead.

-You create a new query file from a template for a given language, which imports the standard libraries for analyzing that language. For more information, see [About {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} queries](https://codeql.github.com/docs/writing-codeql-queries/about-codeql-queries/) in the {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} documentation.
+You can write custom {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} queries to find specific issues relevant to your own project. This is optional, and the [`github/codeql`](https://github.com/github/codeql) repository contains a large number of example queries you can use instead.

A query template labeled `example.ql` will then be added to the existing or autogenerated directory.
