 It is possible to generate files for each specific object in your AsyncAPI documentation using the Nunjucks render engine. For example, you can specify a filename like `$$channel$$.js` to generate a file for each channel defined in your AsyncAPI. The following file-template names and extra variables are available:

+## Migration Guide from nunjucks render engine to react render engine
+
+### Introduction
+
+The asyncAPI generator is moving away from Nunjucks templates in favor of React templates. This guide will help you migrate your existing Nunjucks templates to React. For a comprehensive understanding of why we introduced React as an alternative in 2021 and why we're now removing Nunjucks entirely, please read our article [React as a Generator Engine](https://www.asyncapi.com/blog/react-as-generator-engine). The principles discussed in this article still apply to our current transition.
+
+### Step-by-step migration guide
+
+#### 1. Update package.json
+
+Change your template configuration in `package.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+"generator": {
+"renderer": "react"
+}
+}
+```
+
+Once the deprecation period has ended, and we remove the default Nunjucks, the React render engine will be used by default and this setting will no longer be needed to configure
+
+#### 2. Install dependencies
+
+Install the necessary React dependencies:
+
+```bash
+npm install @asyncapi/generator-react-sdk
+```
+
+#### 3. File naming
+
+In Nunjucks, the template's filename directly corresponds to the output file. For example, a template named index.html will generate an index.html file.
+
+In React, the filename of the generated file is not controlled by the file itself, but rather by the File component. The React component itself can be named anything with a `.js` extension, but the output file is controlled by the `name` attribute of the File component:
+
+#### 4. Basic template structure
+
+Nunjucks:
+```js
+<h1>{{ asyncapi.info().title() }}</h1>
+<p>{{ asyncapi.info().description() }}</p>
+```
+
+React:
+```js
+import { File } from '@asyncapi/generator-react-sdk';
+
+export default function({ asyncapi }) {
+  return (
+    <File name="index.html">
+      <h1>{asyncapi.info().title()}</h1>
+      <p>{asyncapi.info().description()}</p>
+    </File>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+#### 5. Macros and Partials
+
+Replace macros with React components:
+
+Nunjucks:
+```js
+{% macro renderChannel(channel) %}
+  <div class="channel">
+    <h3>{{ channel.address() }}</h3>
+    <p>{{ channel.description() }}</p>
+  </div>
+{% endmacro %}
+
+{{ renderChannel(someChannel) }}
+```
+
+React:
+```js
+// components/Channel.js
+import { Text } from '@asyncapi/generator-react-sdk';
+
+export function Channel({ channel }) {
+  return (
+    <Text>
+      <div className="channel">
+        <h3>{channel.address()}</h3>
+        <p>{channel.description()}</p>
+      </div>
+    </Text>
+  );
+}
+
+// Main template
+import { File, Text } from '@asyncapi/generator-react-sdk';
+import { Channel } from './components/Channel';
+
+export default function({ asyncapi }) {
+  return (
+    <File name="channels.html">
+      <Text>
+        <h2>Channels</h2>
+      </Text>
+      {asyncapi.channels().map(channel => (
+        <Channel channel={channel} />
+      ))}
+    </File>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+#### 6. File template 
+
+The detailed guide on file template can be found in [this](file-templates.md) guide.
+
+### Additional Resources and Information
+
+#### Template Examples
+For a complete example of React features in use, please refer to the [AsyncAPI Template for Generator Templates](https://github.com/asyncapi/template-for-generator-templates). The `master` branch demonstrates all React features, while the `nunjucks` branch shows the old Nunjucks implementation. This comparison can be particularly helpful in understanding the differences and migration process.
+
+#### Filters to Helpers
+If you've been using Nunjucks filters placed in the `filters` directory, you can still use this functionality in React. However, they should be treated as normal functions that you import into your components. We recommend renaming the `filters` directory to `helpers` to better reflect their new usage in React.
+
+#### Hooks Remain Unchanged
+It's important to note that hooks remain unchanged in this migration process. Hooks are not related to the render engine functionality, so you can continue to use them as you have been.
+
+### Testing your migration
+
+After migrating, test your template thoroughly:
+
+1. Run the generator using your new React template
+2. Compare the output with the previous Nunjucks template output
+3. Check for any missing or incorrectly rendered content
+
+### Conclusion
+
+Migrating from Nunjucks to React templates may require some initial effort, but it will result in more maintainable. You can learn more about why we introduced ther React render engine [here](https://www.asyncapi.com/blog/react-as-generator-engine)
