Themes

Leafpub templates are built with a simple but powerful template system called Handlebars. If you've never used Handlebars before, you're in for a treat.

Handlebar templates are easy to create and don't require any PHP programming whatsoever.

The easiest way to get started is to open the .hbs files in content/themes/range and play around with them. They're just HTML files with {{placeholders}}, so it won't be long before you're building your own themes. For more info about themes, check out these posts.

Tip: You might need to configure your text editor to open .hbs files.

Plugins

Plugins are able to extend Leafpub in many ways. 
They can be a middleware or subscribe to any Leafpub event that gets fired.
It's also possible to define own routes and create new endpoints.
