The Reporter supports advanced home page layout customization with its ready-made partials for posts sections and banners.

The Reporter supports advanced home page layout customization. It won't be difficult, because all of the sections and banners is pre-made, so all you have to do is insert the required lines in the order you want.

So, in order to work with the theme code, we will need to install a code editor if you don’t already have one. We recommend installing Visual Studio Code as it is free and convenient. Link to download - https://code.visualstudio.com/download.

We also need to install npm and Node.js - https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm.

Then, when npm is installed, we can open our theme so start working on it in Code Editor. To do this:

1. Unzip the-reporter.zip file

2. You'll see the-reporter unzipped folder

3. Then, open Visual Studio Code

4. Drag and drop the-reporter folder inside Visual Studio Code

5. Now we need to open terminal, to do this:

   • From the menu, use the Terminal > New Terminal or View > Terminal menu commands.

6. Now, to install all packages, insert npm install command in your terminal and press Enter

7. To customize home page, we'll only need index.hbs file, find and open it.

8. That's it! Well done! Now we can work on our theme customization!
