+# Development
+
+There is a CLI command for demonstrating
+graph templates (useful for developing them):
+
+```bash
+icingacli graphite icinga2 config
+```
+
+It generates Icinga 2 config based on the present graph templates.
+With this config Icinga will (also) "monitor" dummy services yielding random
+perfdata as expected by the graph templates.
+
+I. e.: If that Icinga is also writing to the Graphite that is read by your
+Icinga Web Graphite Integration, you'll get dummy graphs for all templates.
