## Customization

Flat is able to be customized extensively by the [WordPress hooks & filters API]
(http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API), which is a fancy way of saying that
without creating a child theme, you have the freedom to add, remove, and change a
lot of what makes Flat _Flat_. In addition to the default hooks & filters that just
about any WordPress theme has available, Flat is equipped with the following:
