Bones is a minimal, mobile-first starter theme designed for developers who build custom websites on popular content management systems. It provides a clean, standards-compliant codebase as a foundation, allowing you to add features selectively rather than removing unwanted bloat from a larger framework.

Mobile-First & Responsive: The theme is built with a mobile-first approach, using Sass to serve minimal resources to smaller screens and scale up efficiently. This improves performance and user experience on all devices.

Modular Sass Foundation: It includes a detailed, commented Sass setup to speed up stylesheet development. This provides a practical starting point for working with modern CSS preprocessing.

Clean, Uncluttered Code: The theme strips out unnecessary code and functions from the CMS by default, resulting in a lighter, faster-loading foundation that you can build upon directly without child themes.

Optional Development Features: It comes with examples for implementing custom content types and dashboard customizations. These are fully documented and can be deleted if not required for a specific project.

Free and Open Source: Released under a permissive license, Bones is free to use, modify, and even use as a base for commercial themes, offering maximum flexibility.
