Base: A minimal, hackable starter for custom theme development.

Underscores is a starter theme designed for developers who want a minimal, clean base to build custom sites. It provides just enough structure to get started quickly without bloat. Unlike parent themes, it's meant to be hacked and transformed into your own creation.

Lean HTML5 Templates: Well-commented, modern templates that follow best practices, making customisation straightforward.
Smart CSS Organisation: The style.css file includes a sensible starter structure to help you rapidly implement your design.
Helpful Extras: Built-in 404 template, optional custom header support in inc/custom-header.php, and clean template tags in inc/template-tags.php to reduce code duplication.
Responsive Navigation: A script at js/navigation.js turns your menu into a toggled dropdown on small screens, ready for styling.
Sample Layouts: Two CSS layout examples in layouts/ for sidebar-on-left or sidebar-on-right, giving you a starting point for content arrangement.
