It was way more difficult than it had any right to be, not only because of the strange format of WordPress themes (Why would you call a function to start a loop?) but also because WordPress didn&apos;t ship with any theme that could serve as a good example.&lt;p&gt;The default theme was, and still is, too bloated for learners to wrap their heads around. It has too many features, too many branches, and too many sub-templates extending the main template, due to the fact that it also needs to serve as a showcase for all of WordPress&apos;s features. I resorted to downloading the most minimalistic third-party theme that I could find, cleaned it up some more, and used it as a base for all the themes I&apos;ve written since then.&lt;p&gt;I&apos;m glad that someone finally made an open-source theme specifically for the purpose of being a rock-solid base for other themes. This is something that should have been done by the core developers 10 years ago. I don&apos;t know how much longer we&apos;ll have to suffer the sprawling spaghetti monster that WordPress is, but since a lot of us are stuck with it anyway, why not make our lives easier for the time being!&lt;p&gt;P.S. Please add a link to the GitHub repository, too. Some of us prefer git clones to tarballs.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>A solution for designers who don&apos;t know Wordpress</title><url>http://bckmn.com/naked-wordpress/</url></story>
