Have you seen the processwire documentation ?

https://processwire.com/api/ref/field/

1) Setup a field of type textarea
2) Echo or include the textarea field where you want it

echo $Yourpage->yourfield;
include $Yourpage->yourfield;

I was looking for a way to make template with fields programatically. But I think this is not happening. What you are suggesting is adding fields that are already made inside database. But thanks.

Creating a new template with api

<?php namespace ProcessWire;
$fieldgroup = new Fieldgroup();
$fieldgroup->name = "something";
$fieldgroup->add("title"); // add some fields
$fieldgroup->add("body");
$fieldgroup->add("summary");
$fieldgroup->save();

$template = new Template();
$template->name = "something"; // must be same name as the fieldgroup
$template->fieldgroup = $fieldgroup;
$template->save();
