Dawn 2.0 Theme Problem | Home Page Index file is not present

Store Design
1

I want to modify lot of things for home page but i see the index.liquid file is not present in theme.

I have a lot of modifications to be done and the prebuild theme customizer wont be able to do it.

So where is the index file as there was in Debut theme ?

I also made a new index.alternate.liquid & index.alternate.json files but they wont appear in theme customizer for home page !!!

So how can i include liquid for homepage ?

Following is the code for index.json but how can i include liquid in it since json cant have liquid

Previously the index.liquid file only had {{ content_for_index }} in it. This provided the sequence in which the sections are displayed on the home page as specified in the settings_data.json. If have to change anything on the home page besides the sequence then you change the template or the appropriate section file

Hello @xGhost ,

You can also add your code to the Homepage from the theme editor using the “Custom Liquid” section or block whichever you need.
