When using Hugo with [github pages](http://pages.github.com/) you can provide
your own 404 template by creating a 404.html file in the root.
404 pages are of the type "node" and have all the [node
variables](/layout/variables/) available to use in the templates.
In addition to the standard node variables, the homepage has access to
all site content accessible from .Data.Pages
