Help for Aimeos

This is my first Aimeos project. Currently I have the catalog filter tree residing in a menu that slides out from the left side when a menu icon is clicked. This is working fine.

However, on the home page I wish to show only the first level of sub-categories along with their category images and descriptions.

My catalog tree is

HOME
>Bakery
> >Breads
> >Cakes
>Meals
> >Single Serve
> >Family Size

So on the home (HOME Level) page I wish to display just the Bakery and Meals categories (not the products) with their category images and descriptions.(without altering the catalog filter in the slideout menu)

How would I achieve that?
I tried using <?= $aibody['catalog/filter'] ?> but this just duplicated my slideout menu.

from my composer.json:
"require": {
"php": "^7.2",
"aimeos/ai-payments": "^2019.10",
"aimeos/aimeos-laravel": "~2019.10",
"fideloper/proxy": "^4.0",
"laravel/framework": "^6.0",
"laravel/tinker": "^1.0",
"laravel/ui": "^1.0",
"league/omnipay": "^3.0",
"omnipay/stripe": "^3.1",
"guzzlehttp/guzzle":">=6.3.0 <6.5.0 || ^6.5.1"
},

In your home controller, you can use the Catalog facade to retrieve the data:

This doesn't appear to work but perhaps I've implemented it incorrectly?

I've copied the shop\app\Http\Controllers\HomeController up into my active extension directory

ext\myshop\controller\frontend\HomeController.php

In the index method I now have

public function index()
{
$categories = \Aimeos\Shop\Facades\Catalog::uses(['text', 'media'])
->getTree(\Aimeos\MW\Tree\Manager\Base::LEVEL_LIST);

return view('home')->with('categories', $categories);
}
-----------------------

If I dump the categories in the controller it doesn't interrupt the application indicating that this HomeController is not active in http://localhost:8000/shop

(I have cleared the cache)

You can't overwrite the Laravel shop\app\Http\Controllers\HomeController.php controller. Instead, you have to add your code in that class directly.

Sou iniciante no Aimeos, por favor onde fica este controlador?
