Underscores is a starter theme designed for developers who want to create custom themes without the overhead of pre-built designs. It serves as a clean, minimal foundation that you can modify and extend to suit specific project needs, making it ideal for those who prefer full control over their theme's structure and appearance.

• Lean, well-commented templates: The theme includes modern HTML5 templates with clear comments, reducing clutter and making it easier to understand and customize the codebase.
• Smart CSS organization: Starter CSS in style.css is structured to help you quickly implement your design ideas, with minimal default styling that avoids getting in your way.
• Custom template tags: Functions in inc/template-tags.php keep templates clean by preventing code duplication, promoting maintainable and efficient theming practices.
• Responsive navigation: A script at js/navigation.js enables toggled dropdown menus on small screens, providing a responsive foundation ready for custom CSS enhancements.
• Sample layouts and tools: It offers optional features like a 404 template, sample custom header implementation, and two CSS layouts for sidebars, giving you practical starting points without forcing unnecessary elements.
