sloyer / WPBaseFoundation

A pretty much empty theme with Foundation & other goodies.

#WPBaseFoundation

##A few notes

A pretty much blank theme, with Foundation5 utilizing Compass/Sass. This is meant to be a pretty much blank theme, nothing more than the tools to get started. Think of it like Bones or Blankslate. Only use what you need.

Please Feel free to Contribute back

The idea for this theme is just to be a blank starter theme any Developer/Designer can enjoy using, cleaner base template files, more functions that can be uncommented and used, Mixins, Structure, anything you find useful, feel free to put a pull request in.

#Foundation 5

1. This theme is utulizing Zurb's Foundation 5.
2. Its already set up and ready to rock. Simply just start laying out your grids in your templates or Sass.
3. To Start, just the Grid is being imported, you can import other Foundation Components throught the _settings.scss file; including the Kitchen Sink.
4. If you ever need to upgrade foundation, just run "foundation update" from the command line from the themes folder.
5. By Default, only the Foundation Grid is in place, you can import select components or the kitchen sink in the Foundation Setting
6. Foundation settings are set in 'scss/_settings.scss'.
7. By Default, a Mixin is in place setting the breakpoint of grid at 768px, you can of course change this.

#Javascript

#SCSS

1. Compile your Sass by running 'compass watch' from the command line in your themes directory.
2. You will Need the Compass Ruby Gem.

#SMACSS

1. I try to follow my own adaption of the "SMACSS" worfklow, you don't have to but you should least read about it @ http://smacss.com

#Sass Globbing

1. Sass Globbing, is an awesome tool created by Chris Eppstein. It allows us to import multiple Sass (In this theme it's including multiple Components) files at one with one import statement located in the app.scss file.

2. To turn off globbing Removed or Comment out the 'require' in config.rb

3. You will Need the Sass-Globbing Ruby Gem.
