I would like to display recent posts or just a lot of posts on homepage and the categories at the bottom like exo.do
It's a setting in the ACP, you can select what page to show on your homepage under General -> Homepage
Whoa, that is a nice theme. Upon inspection of the source, it looks like that homepage is from the custom-homepage plugin, the topics list and categories list are both widgets, with some custom css applied. So, if you wanted to use theme-exodo, that's how you would achieve that effect.
Wow. Thanks for the prompt reply, especially coming from forum staff. What are the 'official' themes?
With official themes you will be thinking of any theme the NodeBB team puts out. Primary Persona at the moment.

@Mawi-Raura The github repo's got there own screenshots in the Readme's, and Persona is the theme you see on this board.
@Mawi-Raura You shouldn't if you want the exact theme exodo uses. The widget's are drag-n-drop. But you probably will if you want a different/custom theme.
