A clean WordPress starter theme

jumpstart

A modern WordPress theme with a sophisticated build process. Inspiration is taken from JointsWP, Underscores, and numerous things I have learned over the years.

About

This theme comes out of the box with:

• SASS support
• Automated Gulp.js build process, with BrowserSync for live-reloading CSS, JS, and PHP
• Automatically generated Custom Post Types and Custom Post Taxonomy's
• Foundation
• Bourbon
• Many custom functions that I have put together over the years

Those who prefer CSS over SASS can throw out gulp files and SASS files. In your case, you will simply use style.css.

Folder Structure

Coming soon.

Install

The Gulp build process is only for those who are major studmeisters:

Instructions:

1. Adjust the path of the browserSyncProxy variable in gulpfile.js.
2. Using the CLI, navigate to the root of your gulpfile.js file and enter npm install.
3. Wait for the node_modules to automatically install.
4. Enter gulp in the CLI. This will start the node server.
5. That's it!
