contents We introduce the concept of a homogeneity supermanifold, which is, roughly speaking, a supermanifold equipped with a privileged atlas whose coordinates carry prescribed (real) homogeneity degrees. This structure defines a sheaf of graded algebras on the supermanifold, regarded as an additional geometric structure. The guiding principle of this approach is that grading is ultimately related to homogeneity. Assigning homogeneity degrees to coordinates in a consistent way is equivalent to fixing a global vector field, the weight vector field. This approach is simple and substantially more general than most existing approaches to graded manifolds. In particular, the homogeneity degrees may be arbitrary real numbers, and the resulting category includes compact supermanifolds. We systematically study homogeneity submanifolds, homogeneity Lie supergroups, tangent and cotangent lifts of homogeneity structures, homogeneous distributions and codistributions, as well as related notions such as double homogeneity. The main achievements of this framework include proofs of the homogeneous Poincaré Lemma, the homogeneous Frobenius Theorem, and the homogeneous symplectic Darboux Theorem, results that are of independent interest even in the purely even case.
