Like 100% blank, even not displaying posts?

Just go into default theme editor, go to index.php and remove all that is not incapsulated in <?php ?>

Why use WordPress for that?

Just create an empty index.html or index.php

Thanks for the replies. I have created an empty index.html file but it could use some performance improvement (that is normally provided by the cache plugins). So - was trying to figure out how to get this code under the WP umbrella.

For this you may just create an empty index.html or use wordpress theme generator to create a blank wordpress theme.

You can just create a theme that has a blank index.php that would "put it under the WP umbrella". Not sure why you need performance improvements to load a blank page though...

Sounds like you're in over your head a bit - Not to sound rude, but if you need to ask how to create an empty wordpress page, chances are you're going to ask how to do everything you need to achieve.

FYI - the index.html should be index.php in order to add plugins to your page, otherwise you're just creating a static page using the .html extension unless you define the php in your html using the following piece of code: AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html

To add plugins, you'll need to add the php include function, and point it to the php file that calls the plugins (usually functions.php).

I recommend you utilize the WordPress codex for more information & examples:
