##Wolf is a starter theme for WordPress. You can take Wolf and hack away on it. No need for a parent theme.
###Why Wolf is awesome:
Based on underscores, Wolf comes with:
- Just the right amount of lean, well-commented, modern, HTML5 templates.
- A helpful 404 template.
- A sample custom header implementation in inc/custom-header.php that can be activated by uncommenting one line in functions.php and adding the code snippet found in the comments of inc/custom header.php to your header.php template.
- Custom template tags in inc/template-tags that keep your templates clean and neat and prevent code duplication.
- Some small tweaks in /inc/tweaks.php that can improve your theming experience. They can be activated by uncommenting one line in functions.php.
- Keyboard navigation for image attachment templates. The script can be found in js/keyboard-navigation.js. It’s enqueued in functions.php.
- 5 sample CSS layouts in /layouts: Two sidebars on the left, two sidebars on the right, a sidebar on either side of your content, and two-column layouts with sidebars on either side.
- The GPL license in license.txt. :) Use it to make something cool.

###Editing Wolf
To edit the theme, you'll need compass & Sass running. You can use Codekit, Prepros, Grunt, or the command line tools.
For more about sass:
All Sass files are in the sass
directory and you can edit any one you like. style.scss
is the main stylesheet. You can see it importing the other scss files. These will all be processed into one file, and are for organizational purposes. Your browser will only be loading style.css
as usual.
