Starter Wordpress / SMACSS / Gulp / ES6 / Bootstrap (or Foundation)

Wordpress Starter Theme

The perfect Wordpress starter theme for me. Lightweight, with SCSS+SMACSS/ES6/Gulp/Bootstrap (or Foundation).

Extra features:

• Some usefull includes, like a good pagination.php for Wordpress.
• Some functions in functions.php, like thumbnails support and words excerpt limitation.

Nothing more. Just the indissential (contraction of essential and indispensable).

Installation

Unzip the file in /wp-content/themes

Want to use Bootstrap 3 or 4, or Foundation? Just change the 2 urls of .css and .js file in header.php.

Optimized for production with Gulp Tasks

• Optimise and recompress images
• Optimise and minify JS and SCSS scripts
• Can create font icons

Gulp Installation

We begin by installing Gulp in global mode with -g.

npm install -g gulp

To check if everything is installed and Gulp is active:

gulp -v
