New to Shopify and going through a 2019 Tutorial where it all starts by playing around in index.liquid - which I see in the instructor’s Templates folder but not mine.
So, I figure, ok, what happens if I try to add it? But that created index.alternate.liquid - which implies that there actually is an index.liquid somewhere that I can’t see?
Did something change since 2019? What am I missing here?
Maybe you mean theme.liquid or index.json file.
Thanks for responding.
Here is the tutorial I’m talking about…

If you just jump to around 8:05 you can see that he is using index.liquid to create output that shows up in the theme.liquid “content_for_layout” area. I have to think something has changed since this with how this is wired up. What goes into “content_for_layout” by default?
Ok, so I guess this is theme specific. I was assuming it was fundamental to all themes. I downloaded the instructors starter theme and I see the index.liquid file like he has.
I’m still missing something about how this is structured but I will probably pick it up as I go.
