<p>Hugo uses a <a href="https://gohugo.io/getting-started/directory-structure/#union-file-system" rel="external" target="_self">union file system</a>, which lets you combine multiple directories.</p>
<p>By default, it puts your root directory on top of the Relearn theme directory. Files in your root directory will replace theme files in the same location.</p>
<p>For example, if you create a file at <code>layouts/partials/heading.html</code>, it will override the theme’s <code>themes/hugo-theme-relearn/layouts/partials/heading.html</code>.</p>
<p><a href="/hugo-theme-relearn/configuration/customization/partials/index.html">See this list</a>, to learn which files are allowed to be modified by you.</p>
<p>This makes it easy to customize the theme without changing files in the <code>themes</code> directory, making future theme updates simpler.</p>
