Greetings.
Question: Is there an easy way to not use the page assigned in the settings on the main page?
(/admin/config/system/site-information - Path to use for the home page)
I want to put an arbitrary <H1> on the main page and then use blocks.
In Drupal 7 I used https://drupal.org/project/empty_front_page for this.
Thank you.

Given the path at admin/config/system/site-information is "home" (which represents the Home layout), I'd do the following:
- Go to the Home layout, and remove (or disable) the blocks "Welcome to Backdrop", "3 promoted cards", and "Promoted content".
- On the same layout, Configure the "Page title", choose the option "Custom page title", and type in your custom title.
- Save the Home layout.
Yes, I forgot about layouts (Drupal habit), and ran into a new question.
Any changes to the Home page Layout are not reflected on the home page.
Then I found out that the Default Layout is running on the main page, even though the Home page Layout is active.
And the strange thing is that the Home page Layout has a path of /home (not / or <front>). Why the path /home means the main page is not indicated in the documentation.
According to the documentation, the layout will only work on the specified path. How can this layout work on the home page when the path is /home?
Understood. To answer own question, in the home page settings
(/admin/config/system/site-information - Path to use for the home page)
need to specify the Home page Layout path - /home.
And then I can customize the title output as I wish in the Layout blocks settings.
