2. Name it, for example "Home".
3. Set Template to Homepage.
4. Open platform/themes/mila/sample/ and copy the contents of homepage-content.html into the page content (switch the editor to source/HTML mode first).
5. Save.

2. Make it the homepage

Go to Appearance → Theme options → Page, select your page as the homepage, and save.

3. What the sample contains
