For those interested in this they might also check out underscores theme by Automattic[1].<p>Bones is an okay starter but if feels like a more thrown together bundling of the latest and greatest of the web development trends (320andup, sass/less, html5boilerplate) than a functional starter theme. But at least it follows the wordpress coding guidelines unlike roots[2].<p>Question for those who understand open source licenses can this theme even be licensed under the WTFPL considering that it uses wordpress provided functions like (get_header and wp_enqueue_styles)?<p>[1]: <a href="https://github.com/Automattic/_s" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/Automattic/_s</a> or <a href="http://underscores.me/" rel="nofollow">http://underscores.me/</a><p>[2]: <a href="http://www.rootstheme.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.rootstheme.com/</a>
We used the Bones template as our starting point for <a href="http://www.noshon.it" rel="nofollow">http://www.noshon.it</a>. It served as a great barebones theme to customize off of. As previously mentioned, the documentation throughout all of the files is awesome - very helpful for first time Wordpress work.<p>We actually replaced the 320grid and other styles with Bootstrap because of familiarity with the framework.
Very impressive and well-documented. I wonder if this could be the Bootstrap of the WP world (although much more lightweight and not actually a framework). Did I mention the well-documented CSS.
