 ''_index.md'' has special access to information about the section's sub-pages. The typical use case for this is listing blog entries. Also, ''_index.md'' files can (should? must?) specify not just the template they will use but also the (default?) template page used by sub-pages.
-If you don't have a ''_index.md'' file in a folder, Zola does not formally consider it a section, but the pages defined in it are still accessible. You can define an ''index.md'' file in a folder if you don't need the abilities of a section.

 ===== Marking a menu item as active =====

+There may be a better way to do this, but selectively adding a class if the relative path matches seems to work.
+<code twig>
+<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
+  {# for each of the menu entries, if the relative path leads matches the page, add class="active" #}
+  {% set current = section | default(value=page) %}
