This is a developer-focused starter theme designed for building custom, performant websites on a popular content management system. It provides a clean, minimal foundation that removes unnecessary default features and integrates modern front-end tools directly into the workflow. The theme is intended for developers familiar with command-line tools like npm and Composer who want to avoid starting from scratch on every project.

• Modern Front-End Stack: Integrates Bootstrap 5 for responsive layouts, jQuery 3 for interactivity, and SCSS for maintainable styling, all managed via npm.
• Optimized Build Process: Uses Vite to compile JavaScript and SCSS from a source directory, enabling fast development with watch modes and efficient production builds.
• Performance-Centric Defaults: Deliberately strips out many default CMS features and scripts to deliver a minimal HTML page with a single CSS and a single JS resource, reducing HTTP requests.
• Configurable Functionality: The functions.php file includes numerous commented-out options for common needs like custom post types, image sizes, security headers, and admin customizations, allowing you to enable only what you need.
• Developer Utilities: Includes practical features for development, such as template name output in the footer, conditional loading of Advanced Custom Fields settings, and built-in support for a Bootstrap navigation walker.
