Hey, I build my own theme and I would like to ask what is the best practice to display the announcements topics or any specific topics from single category?  
thanks

Pin the topic? Maybe make it pop out with CSS?  
Or did I misunderstand your question?

thank you for your answer.

I build new theme and I want to display the announcements topics in the home page of my discourse theme.  
I wondering if there is a template for this that I can use or I need to use discourse api to fetch list of topics from specific category (like from announcements category)

Do you mean the topics from the announcements category? Yes, if you want to display those on all pages you’ll need to make an API call to get them (or create a plugin to add them to the serializer.).
