Underscores is a starter theme for developers who want to build custom WordPress themes from scratch. It provides a minimal, well-commented foundation that you can modify and extend, rather than using as a parent theme. Designed for hacking, it gives you full control over the final design and functionality.

  • Lean HTML5 templates: Includes a just-right set of modern, semantic templates that are easy to read and customize.
  • Helpful 404 template: A ready-to-use 404 page that you can style to match your theme.
  • Custom template tags: Functions in inc/template-tags.php keep your templates clean and prevent code duplication.
  • Responsive navigation: A JavaScript file (js/navigation.js) turns your menu into a toggled dropdown on small screens.
  • Sample CSS layouts: Two layout options in the layouts/ folder for placing a sidebar on either side of your content.

Underscores also includes an optional custom header implementation and small tweaks in inc/template-functions.php to improve your theming workflow. The starter CSS in style.css is organized to help you quickly build your design. Licensed under GPLv2 or later, it's meant to be used as a starting point for creating something unique.
