```bash
class customTemplateComponent{
  renderMessage(msgData){
      if (msgData?.message[0]?.component?.payload?.template_type === 'custom_stock_template') {
          return '<h2 data-cw-msg-id=' + msgData.messageId + ' data-time=' + msgData.createdOnTimemillis + '>My Template HTML</h2>';      
      } else {
          return false;
      }
  } 
}

chatWindowInstance.templateManager.installTemplate(new customTemplateComponent());
```
Other framework UI components like angular and react can also be injected with this

> [!NOTE]
