Additional Features Inherited from _s

• A just right amount of lean, well-commented, modern, HTML5 templates.

• A custom header implementation in inc/custom-header.php just add the code snippet found in the comments of inc/custom-header.php to your header.php template.
• Custom template tags in inc/template-tags.php that keep your templates clean and neat and prevent code duplication.
• Some small tweaks in inc/template-functions.php that can improve your theming experience.
• A script at js/navigation.js that makes your menu a toggled dropdown on small screens (like your phone), ready for CSS artistry. It's enqueued in functions.php.

Getting Started

Installation

npm run install               Install the required dependencies
npm start                     Starts the development server
npm run build:production      Compiles assets for production (minified and babel)

Namespace

If you want to set things up manually, download _s from GitHub. The first thing you want to do is copy the _s directory and change the name to something else (like, say, megatherium-is-awesome), and then you'll need to do a five-step find and replace on the name in all the templates.

1. Search for 'jameswp' (inside single quotations) to capture the text domain.
2. Search for jameswp_ to capture all the function names.
3. Search for Text Domain: jameswp in style.css.
4. Search for  _s (with a space before it) to capture DocBlocks.
5. Search for jameswp- to capture prefixed handles.
