Page Bundles are a way to group [Page Resources](/content-management/page-resources/).
## Introduction
A Page Bundle can be one of:
A page bundle is a directory that encapsulates both content and associated resources.
- Leaf Bundle (leaf means it has no children)
- Branch Bundle (home page, section, taxonomy terms, taxonomy list)
By way of example, this site has an "about" page and a "privacy" page:
| | Leaf Bundle | Branch Bundle |
|-------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Usage | Collection of content and attachments for single pages | Collection of attachments for section pages (home page, section, taxonomy terms, taxonomy list) |
| Index file name | `index.md` [^fn:1] | `_index.md` [^fn:1] |
| Allowed Resources | Page and non-page (like images, PDF, etc.) types | Only non-page (like images, PDF, etc.) types |
| Where can the Resources live? | At any directory level within the leaf bundle directory. | At any directory level within the branch bundle directory. |
| Layout type | [`single`](/templates/single-page-templates/) | [`list`](/templates/lists) |
| Nesting | Does not allow nesting of more bundles under it | Allows nesting of leaf or branch bundles under it |
| Example | `content/posts/my-post/index.md` | `content/posts/_index.md` |
| Content from non-index page files...| Accessed only as page resources | Accessed only as regular pages |
```text
content/
├── about/
│ ├── index.md
│ └── welcome.jpg
└── privacy.md
```
The "about" page is a page bundle. It logically associates a resource with content by bundling them together. Resources within a page bundle are [page resources], accessible with the [`Resources`] method on the `Page` object.
Page bundles are either _leaf bundles_ or _branch bundles_.
leaf bundle
: A _leaf bundle_ is a directory that contains an index.md file and zero or more resources. Analogous to a physical leaf, a leaf bundle is at the end of a branch. It has no descendants.
branch bundle
: A _branch bundle_ is a directory that contains an _index.md file and zero or more resources. Analogous to a physical branch, a branch bundle may have descendants including leaf bundles and other branch bundles. Top level directories with or without _index.md files are also branch bundles. This includes the home page.

In the definitions above and the examples below, the extension of the index file depends on the [content format]. For example, use index.md for Markdown content, index.html for HTML content, index.adoc for AsciiDoc content, etc.

## Comparison
Page bundle characteristics vary by bundle type.
| | Leaf bundle | Branch bundle |
|---------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
| Index file | index.md | _index.md |
| Example | content/about/index.md | content/posts/_index.md |
| [Page kinds] | `page` | `home`, `section`, `taxonomy`, or `term` |
| Layout type | [single] | [list] |
| Descendant pages | None | Zero or more |
| Resource location | Adjacent to the index file or in a nested subdirectory | Same as a leaf bundles, but excludes descendant bundles |
| [Resource types] | `page`, `image`, `video`, etc. | all but `page` |
Files with [resource type] `page` include content written in Markdown, HTML, AsciiDoc, Pandoc, reStructuredText, and Emacs Org Mode. In a leaf bundle, excluding the index file, these files are only accessible as page resources. In a branch bundle, these files are only accessible as content pages.
## Leaf bundles
A _Leaf Bundle_ is a directory at any hierarchy within the `content/`
directory, that contains an **`index.md`** file.
### Examples of leaf bundle organization {#examples-of-leaf-bundle-organization}
A _leaf bundle_ directory that contains an index.md file and zero or more resources. Analogous to a physical leaf, a leaf bundle is at the end of a branch. It has no descendants.
```text
content/
├── about
│ ├── index.md
── index.md
├── posts
│ ├── my-post
│ │ ├── content1.md
│ │ ├── content2.md
│ │ ├── image1.jpg
│ │ ├── image2.png
│ │ ├── content-1.md
│ │ ├── content-2.md
│ │ ├── image-1.jpg
│ │ ├── image-2.png
│ │ └── index.md
│ └── my-other-post
│ └── index.md
└── another-section
├── ..
├── foo.md
└── not-a-leaf-bundle
├── ..
├── bar.md
└── another-leaf-bundle
└── index.md
```
In the above example `content/` directory, there are four leaf
bundles:
There are four leaf bundles in the example above:
about
: This leaf bundle is at the root level (directly under
`content` directory) and has only the `index.md`.
: This leaf bundle does not contain any page resources.
my-post
: This leaf bundle has the `index.md`, two other content
Markdown files and two image files.
: This leaf bundle contains an index file, two resources of [resource type] `page`, and two resources of resource type `image`.
- image1, image2:
These images are page resources of `my-post`
and only available in `my-post/index.md` resources.
- content-1, content-2
- content1, content2:
These content files are page resources of `my-post`
and only available in `my-post/index.md` resources.
They will **not** be rendered as individual pages.
These are resources of resource type `page`, accessible via the [`Resources`] method on the `Page` object. Hugo will not render these as individual pages.
- image-1, image-2
These are resources of resource type `image`, accessible via the `Resources` method on the `Page` object
my-other-post
: This leaf bundle has only the `index.md`.
: This leaf bundle does not contain any page resources.
another-leaf-bundle
: This leaf bundle is nested under couple of
directories. This bundle also has only the `index.md`.
: This leaf bundle does not contain any page resources.
{{% note %}}
The hierarchy depth at which a leaf bundle is created does not matter,
as long as it is not inside another **leaf** bundle.
Create leaf bundles at any depth within the content directory, but a leaf bundle may not contain another bundle. Leaf bundles do not have descendants.

### Headless bundle
A headless bundle is a bundle that is configured to not get published
anywhere:
- It will have no `Permalink` and no rendered HTML in `public/`.
- It will not be part of `.Site.RegularPages`, etc.
But you can get it by `.Site.GetPage`. Here is an example:
```go-html-template
{{ $headless := .Site.GetPage "/some-headless-bundle" }}
{{ $reusablePages := $headless.Resources.Match "author*" }}
<h2>Authors</h2>
{{ range $reusablePages }}
<h3>{{ .Title }}</h3>
{{ .Content }}
{{ end }}
```
_In this example, we are assuming the `some-headless-bundle` to be a headless
bundle containing one or more **page** resources whose `.Name` matches
`"author*"`._
Explanation of the above example:
1. Get the `some-headless-bundle` Page "object".
2. Collect a _slice_ of resources in this _Page Bundle_ that matches
`"author*"` using `.Resources.Match`.
3. Loop through that _slice_ of nested pages, and output their `.Title` and
`.Content`.
---
A leaf bundle can be made headless by adding below in the front matter
(in the `index.md`):
{{< code-toggle file=content/headless/index.md fm=true >}}
headless = true
{{< /code-toggle >}}
There are many use cases of such headless page bundles:
- Shared media galleries
- Reusable page content "snippets"
## Branch bundles
A _Branch Bundle_ is any directory at any hierarchy within the
`content/` directory, that contains at least an **`_index.md`** file.
This `_index.md` can also be directly under the `content/` directory.
{{% note %}}
Here `md` (Markdown) is used just as an example. You can use any file
type as a content resource as long as it is a content type recognized by Hugo.
{{% /note %}}
### Examples of branch bundle organization
A _branch bundle_ is a directory that contains an _index.md file and zero or more resources. Analogous to a physical branch, a branch bundle may have descendants including leaf bundles and other branch bundles. Top level directories with or without _index.md files are also branch bundles. This includes the home page.
```text
content/
├── branch-bundle-1
│ ├── branch-content1.md
│ ├── branch-content2.md
│ ├── image1.jpg
│ ├── image2.png
├── branch-bundle-1/
│ ├── _index.md
│ ├── content-1.md
│ ├── content-2.md
│ ├── image-1.md
│ └── image-2.md
├── branch-bundle-2/
│ ├── a-leaf-bundle/
│ │ └── index.md
│ └── _index.md
└── branch-bundle-2
├── _index.md
└── a-leaf-bundle
└── index.md
└── _index.md
```
In the above example `content/` directory, there are two branch
bundles (and a leaf bundle):
There are three branch bundles in the example above:
home page
: This branch bundle contains an index file, two descendant branch bundles, and no resources.
branch-bundle-1
: This branch bundle has the `_index.md`, two
other content Markdown files and two image files.
: This branch bundle contains an index file, two resources of [resource type] `page`, and two resources of resource type `image`.
branch-bundle-2
: This branch bundle has the `_index.md` and a
nested leaf bundle.
: This branch bundle contains an index file and a leaf bundle.
{{% note %}}
The hierarchy depth at which a branch bundle is created does not
matter.
Create branch bundles at any depth within the content directory, but a leaf bundle may not contain another bundle. Leaf bundles do not have descendants.

[^fn:1]: The `.md` extension is just an example. The extension can be `.html`, `.json` or any valid MIME type.
