I think you are exactly looking for "template extending".

1. Create base/master html file in "templates" folder.

   This will be base/master file where all theme css,js , html layout tags exists.

2. Add place holders for child html "content" in above base/master html

   {% block content %} {% endblock %}

3. Add following code line in "child" template to use above base/master html

   {% extends 'path_to_base_html/base.html' %} {% block content %} Child html {% endblock %}
