The home page of a website is often formatted differently than the other
 | 
			
		||||
pages. In Hugo you can define your own homepage template. 
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Homepage is of the type "node" and have all the [node
 | 
			
		||||
variables](/templates/variables/) and [site
 | 
			
		||||
variables](/templates/variables/) available to use in the templates.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
*This is the only required template for building a site and useful when
 | 
			
		||||
bootstrapping a new site and template. It is also the only required
 | 
			
		||||
template when using a single page site.*
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
In addition to the standard node variables, the homepage has access to
 | 
			
		||||
all site content accessible from .Data.Pages . Details on how to use the
 | 
			
		||||
list of pages can be found in the [Lists Template](/templates/list/)
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Which Template will be rendered?
 | 
			
		||||
Hugo uses a set of rules to figure out which template to use when
 | 
			
		||||
rendering a specific page.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Hugo will use the following prioritized list. If a file isn’t present
 | 
			
		||||
than the next one in the list will be used. This enables you to craft
 | 
			
		||||
specific layouts when you want to without creating more templates
 | 
			
		||||
then necessary. For most sites only the \_default file at the end of
 | 
			
		||||
the list will be needed.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
* /layouts/index.html
 | 
			
		||||
* /layouts/\_default/list.html
 | 
			
		||||
* /layouts/\_default/single.html
 | 
			
		||||
* /themes/`THEME`/layouts/index.html
 | 
			
		||||
* /themes/`THEME`/layouts/\_default/list.html
 | 
			
		||||
* /themes/`THEME`/layouts/\_default/single.html
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## example index.html
 | 
			
		||||
This content template is used for [spf13.com](http://spf13.com).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
It makes use of [partial templates](/templates/partials) and uses a similar approach as a [List](/templates/list/).
