+### `setResultItemTemplate(View|string|Closure $template)`
 
 The templates for the list and result items can be set in two ways: either by passing a string, or by passing a Laravel view.
 
 Examples:
 
+```php
+SharpFormAutocompleteRemoteField::make('customer')
+    ->setRemoteEndpoint('/api/customers')
+    ->setListItemTemplate('<div>{{$name}}</div><div><small>{{$email}}</small></div>')
+    ->setResultItemTemplate(view('my/customer/blade/view'));
+```
+
+Note that the template can access to every attribute of the item (which will be sent as JSON by the API endpoint, and cast into an array) as a variable. In this example, we assume that the API endpoint returns an array of objects with `id`, `name` and `email` attributes.
+
+There is a third way to set the templates, by passing a Closure. This is **only suitable in one case: a remote autocomplete with a callback**. The closure will receive the unchanged item as a parameter (it’s useful when this item is an object, like a Model for instance), and must return a string. 
+Here’s a simple example:
