Roots Theme

Roots is a WordPress starter theme based on HTML5 Boilerplate & Bootstrap that will help you make better themes.

Installation

Clone the git repo - git clone git://github.com/roots/roots.git - or download it and then rename the directory to the name of your theme or website. Install Grunt, and then install the dependencies for Roots contained in package.json by running the following from the Roots theme directory:

npm install

Reference the theme activation documentation to understand everything that happens once you activate Roots.

Theme Development

After you've installed Grunt and ran npm install from the theme root, use grunt watch to watch for updates to your LESS and JS files and Grunt will automatically re-build as you write your code.

Configuration

Edit lib/config.php to enable or disable support for various theme functions and to define constants that are used throughout the theme.
