+
+Hugo provides a robust theming system which is simple, yet capable of producing
+even the most complicated websites.
+
+The Hugo community has created [a wide variety of beautiful themes](//themes.gohugo.io/), as demoed at [themes.gohugo.io](//themes.gohugo.io/),
+ready for using in your own site.
+
+Hugo themes have been designed to be the perfect balance between
+simplicity and functionality. Hugo themes are powered by the excellent
+Go template library. If you are new to Go templates, see our [primer on
+Go templates](/templates/go-templates/).
+
+Hugo themes support all modern features you come to expect. They are
+structured in such a way to eliminate code duplication. Themes are also
+designed to be very easy to customize while retaining the ability to
+maintain upgradeability as the upstream theme changes.
+
+Hugo currently doesn’t ship with a “default” theme, allowing the user to
+pick whichever theme best suits their project.
+
+We hope you will find Hugo themes perfect for your site.
