 ## Usage
 
+### Home Layout
+
+`home.html` is a flexible HTML layout for the site's landing-page / home-page / index-page. <br/>
+
+#### Main Heading and Content-injection
+
+From Minima v2.2 onwards, the *home* layout will inject all content from your `index.md` / `index.html` **before** the **`Posts`** heading. This will allow you to include non-posts related content to be published on the landing page under a dedicated heading. *We recommended that you title this section with a Heading2 (`##`)*.
+
+Usually the `site.title` itself would suffice as the implicit 'main-title' for a landing-page. But, if your landing-page would like a heading to be explicitly displayed, then simply define a `title` variable in the document's front matter and it will be rendered with an `<h1>` tag.
+
+#### Post Listing
+
+This section is optional from Minima v2.2 onwards.<br/>
+It will be automatically included only when your site contains one or more valid posts or drafts (if the site is configured to `show_drafts`).
+
+The title for this section is `Posts` by default and rendered with an `<h2>` tag. You can customize this heading by defining a `list_title` variable in the document's front matter.

 ### Customization
 
 To override the default structure and style of minima, simply create the concerned directory at the root of your site, copy the file you wish to customize to that directory, and then edit the file.
