How to render template for custom module in drupal 8?

It is easy way to render/call template(.html.twig) file for custom module in drupal 8, But here concept is slightly different from drupal 7.
First we will go to the Controller file:
Like our controller name is ContactController.php so we will write there code like.
//Go to the ContactController.php file..
/**
 * @file
 * Contains \Drupal\contact\Controller\ContactController.
 */

namespace Drupal\contact\Controller;
use Drupal\node\Entity\Node;
use Drupal\Core\Controller\ControllerBase;


class Contactv4Controller extends ControllerBase {  
    public function indexv2() {
     
      $data = "<div>Testing</div>";
     
      return [
       '#theme'  => 'specific_contact',
       '#contact'   => $data,
    ];
  }
}

// Then go to the contact.module file.
/**
* Implements hook_theme() to add the template definition..
**/
function contact_theme($existing, $type, $theme, $path) {
  return array(
       'specific_contact' => [
        'variables' => [
            'contact' => NULL,
       ]
    ]
  );
}
 
// Now in the create template folder and the file with name of 'specific_contact.html.twig'.
And render the variable there like: <p> {{ contact }} </p>
And clear the cache after this.
Now Front end result will be 'Testing' on new template page.
