Seedlingv0.3.5

This is a free, open-source theme framework designed for developers who build custom websites. It provides a structured foundation that merges a minimal, best-practices starter theme with a widely-used front-end component library, allowing for rapid development of unique, responsive sites without starting from scratch.

• Combined Foundation: It integrates the clean, semantic codebase of a popular starter theme with the responsive grid system and UI components of Bootstrap. This gives developers a solid, standards-compliant starting point for both back-end logic and front-end presentation.
• Developer-Focused & Lightweight: The framework is built to be extended and customized, avoiding pre-packaged layouts or excessive features that create bloat. This results in faster-loading sites that are easier to maintain and tailor to specific project requirements.
• Active Maintenance & Community: While open-source, the project is actively maintained by a professional development company, providing ongoing updates, security patches, and stability. It's supported by a large community of developers, as evidenced by its use on over 100,000 sites.
• Child Theme Ready: It is designed to be used with a child theme, which is a best practice for making customizations without modifying the core framework files. This ensures your modifications remain safe during framework updates.
• Saves Development Time: By providing a pre-integrated, battle-tested foundation, it eliminates the initial setup work of combining a starter theme with a front-end framework. Developers report this saves significant hours at the start of each custom project.
