+Hugo makes a set of values available to the templates. Go templates are context based. The following
+are available in the context for the templates.
+
+## Page Variables
+
+The following is a list of most of the accessible variables which can be
+defined for a piece of content. Many of these will be defined in the front
+matter, content or derived from file location.
+
+**.Title**  The title for the content.<br>
+**.Content** The content itself, defined below the front matter.<br>
+**.Summary** A generated summary of the content for easily showing a snippet in a summary view. Note that the breakpoint can be set manually by inserting *&#x3C;!--more--&#x3E;* at the appropriate place in the content page.<br>
+**.Description** The description for the content.<br>
+**.Keywords** The meta keywords for this content.<br>
+**.Date** The date the content is associated with.<br>
+**.PublishDate** The date the content is published on.<br>
+**.Type** The content [type](/content/types/) (e.g. post)<br>
+**.Section** The [section](/content/sections/) this content belongs to<br>
+**.Permalink** The Permanent link for this page.<br>
+**.RelPermalink** The Relative permanent link for this page.<br>
+**.LinkTitle** Access when creating links to this content. Will use linktitle if set in front-matter, else title<br>
+**.Taxonomies** These will use the field name of the plural form of the index (see tags and categories above)<br>
+**.RSSLink** Link to the indexes' rss link <br>
+**.TableOfContents** The rendered table of contents for this content<br>
+**.Prev** Pointer to the previous content (based on pub date)<br>

+**.Site** See site variables below<br>
+
+## Page Params
+
+Any other value defined in the front matter, including indexes will be made available under `.Params`.
+Take for example I'm using tags and categories as my indexes. The following would be how I would access them:
+
+**.Params.tags** <br>
+**.Params.categories** <br>
+<br>
+**All Params are only accessible using all lowercase characters**<br>
+

+**.Permalink** The Permanent link for this node<br>
+**.Url** The relative url for this node.<br>
