Predictable home page resolution
Flowershow now resolves your home page via a fixed priority order — index.md, README.md, index.html, first markdown file, first HTML file, then 404.
Previously, if your content root had no README.md or index.md, visiting your site's root URL returned a 404. This was a common pain point for Obsidian users, whose vaults rarely contain either — your home note might be called anything from Home.md to Welcome.md to My Notes.md.
Flowershow now resolves the home page (/) via a fixed priority order, so your site always has something to show at the root.
Resolution order
index.md(x)orREADME.md(x)at your content rootindex.html— for when you want a fully custom homepage with your own HTML, outside the Flowershow layout- First
.mdor.mdxfile (sorted by path) — best-effort fallback so Obsidian vaults and other collections without an index file always show something - First
.htmlfile (sorted by path) — fallback for content roots with only HTML files - 404
index.* takes precedence over README.* if both exist.
If you want full control over which note is your home page, just rename it (or add a copy) as index.md.
See Home page docs for the full details and recommendations.
