That is ok.

You are right in that.

If you want to use page templates, you should overwrite the index_html() 
method with a pagetemplate.

You do this by importing PageTemplateFile in the product::

    from Products.PageTemplates.PageTemplateFile import PageTemplateFile

Then you create a callable class called index_html like this:

    index_html = PageTemplateFile('index_html', globals())

Inside the index_html.zpt you can then create a page template::

    <html><body>Hello World<br>The array is: <span
    tal:replace="python:str(here/params)"></body></html>
