How to Add a Custom Section to My Homepage?

[TysonAli1]

Hi everyone,
I’d like to add a new custom section to my website (Checkout) homepage to showcase [specific content, e.g., testimonials, featured blogs, or a promotional banner]. 

Can someone guide me on how to:

1. Create a new custom section in the theme editor?
2. Add it to my homepage layout?

Do I need to modify the Liquid files, or is there an easier way to achieve this?

Here’s how you can do it:

1. Create the Section: In the theme editor, go to the "Sections" folder and add a new .liquid file (e.g., custom-section.liquid). Design your content there.
2. Add to Homepage: Edit your index.json or index.liquid file in the "Templates" folder and reference your new section.
3. Theme Editor Option: If your theme supports it, you can add the section directly via the theme editor without touching code.
