+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,
+then the next one in the list will be used. This enables you to craft
+specific layouts when you want to without creating more templates
+than 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/).
