Thanks, but yeah again, im looking for a file on disk that i can version control and share across the team. Seems that may not be possible though.

There's two things i want to do.

1. Shorten the teaser text
2. Pull out a specific link to use as a button

I think i figured it out though using something like { "hook": "filter:topics.get", "method": "teaserContentShort" }

var Theme = {
	teaserContentShort: function (data, callback) {
		data.topics.forEach(topic => {
			topic.teaser.contentShort = topic.teaser.content.slice(0,20);
		});

		callback(null, data);
	}
};

It seems to work. Hopefully thats not using the wrong paradigm.

@jtsimoes Maybe, things like that don't generally feel powerful enough for my needs. If i create a theme I'd like to have more control of the homepage. I'll play around with it though.
