This is a blank starter child theme for developers building online stores with the free StoreFront e-commerce theme. It provides a safe foundation for customizing a store's appearance and functionality without editing the original parent theme files, ensuring updates can be applied without losing changes.

• Safe Customization Foundation: The child theme structure isolates your custom PHP, CSS, and template files. This protects your modifications when the core StoreFront theme receives updates, preventing your work from being overwritten.
• Organized File Structure: It includes standard files like style.css and functions.php ready for your code. A /assets/sass/ folder is also provided for developers who prefer to write styles using Sass, which can be compiled into CSS.
• Clear Implementation Path: Custom PHP logic should be added to the child theme's functions.php file, while visual styles belong in style.css. This separation promotes maintainable code and makes it easier to manage different types of changes.
• Minimal and Focused: As a true starter theme, it contains no pre-built layouts or design assumptions. This gives developers a clean slate to build exactly the store they need, free from unnecessary features or bloat.
