Any statement contained inside `{{` and `}}` are Gitea's template syntax and
shouldn't be touched without fully understanding these components.
### Customizing startpage / homepage
Copy [`home.tmpl`](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/master/templates/home.tmpl) for your version of Gitea from `templates` to `custom/templates`.
Edit as you wish.
Dont forget to restart your gitea to apply the changes.
### Adding links and tabs
If all you want is to add extra links to the top navigation bar, or extra tabs to the repository view, you can put them in `extra_links.tmpl` and `extra_tabs.tmpl` inside your `custom/templates/custom/` directory.
