Hello, I have not yet published the theme. I give you the link of the page under construction, is it ok? The product is at the bottom.

How can you determine where in the code this should be added? Is there documentation that specifies this? I’m needing to perform the same thing (add the product description to the home page) but I’m using a different theme (Ride). It would be helpful to understand how to figure this out using the documentation. Thanks in advance.
