-## Ace Templates
-
-For template documentation, follow the links from the [Ace project](https://github.com/yosssi/ace).
-
-* Ace templates must be named with the ace-suffix; e.g., `list.ace`
-* It's possible to use both Go templates and Ace templates side by side and even include one into the other
-* Full Go template syntax support, including all the useful helper [template functions][]
-* Partials can be included both with the Ace and the Go template syntax. For example, the following two will have the same output in Ace:
-    * `= include partials/foo.html .`
-    * `{{ partial "foo" . }}`
-
-One noticeable difference between Ace and the other templating engines in Hugo is [Ace's inheritance support through base and inner templates][aceinheritance].
-
-In Hugo, the Ace base template will be chosen with the same rule set as for [Go base templates][].
-
-```
-.:
-index.ace
-
-./blog:
-single.ace
-baseof.ace
-
-./_default:
-baseof.ace  list.ace  single.ace  single-baseof.ace
-```
-
-{{% note %}}
-Note that the `html` suffix is needed even if the filename is suffixed `ace`. This does not work from inside a theme ([issue #763](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/issues/763)).
-{{% /note %}}
-
-Some examples for the layout files above:
-
-* Home page: `./index.ace` +  `./_default/baseof.ace`
-* Single page in the `blog` section: `./blog/single.ace` +  `./blog/baseof.ace`
-* Single page in another section: `./_default/single.ace` +  `./_default/single-baseof.ace`
-* Taxonomy page in any section: `./_default/list.ace` +  `./_default/baseof.ace`
-
-{{% note %}}
-In most cases, one `baseof.ace` in `_default` will suffice. An Ace template without a reference to a base section (e.g., `= content`) will be handled as a standalone template.
-{{% /note %}}
-
-## Amber Templates
-
-For Amber template documentation, follow the links from the [Amber project][].
-
-* Amber templates must be named with the Amber suffix; e.g., `list.amber`
-* Partials in Amber or HTML can be included with the Amber template syntax:
-    * `import ../partials/test.html `
-    * `import ../partials/test_a.amber `
