Enhancing the Drupal Theme Starterkit and Theme Generation Experience
Matt Glaman recently shared insights on enhancing the Drupal theme starterkit and theme generation experience in a blog post. Explaining that Drupal offers a method to generate themes from starterkit themes, Glaman highlighted the simplicity of the process, wherein a theme only needs to have "starterkit: true" in its info.yml file. However, he noted that creating starterkit themes currently involves writing substantial PHP code for required file alterations.
To streamline this process, Mike initiated an issue aimed at simplification, particularly while working on making the Olivero theme a starterkit. Glaman further detailed his efforts in addressing the issue during Florida DrupalCamp, where he focused on providing test coverage and fixing bugs in the code, with a significant portion of the work already completed by Andy Blum. Glaman expressed hope for community engagement in trying out the enhancements and providing valuable feedback.
