Genesis Boilerplate

Introduction

Genesis Boilerplate is yet another starter child theme for the Genesis Framework. It is built using Bourbon Sass Tool Set, Jeet Grid System and SlickNav for navigation.

Installation Instructions

1. Upload the Genesis Boilerplate theme folder via FTP to your wp-content/themes/ directory. (The Genesis parent theme needs to be in the wp-content/themes/ directory as well.)
2. Go to your WordPress dashboard and select Appearance.
3. Activate the Genesis Boilerplate theme.
4. Inside your WordPress dashboard, go to Genesis > Theme Settings and configure them to your liking.

Building from Source

1. Install Git.
2. Clone the repository to your local machine.
3. Install Node.
4. Install Yarn.
5. Install Gulp globally.
6. Run yarn install to install dependencies through terminal/CLI program.
7. Replace proxy url in line 81 of gulpfile.js to your local development URL(e.g. http://bootstrap.test).
8. Run gulp through your favorite CLI program.

Note: I suggest using package manager to install Git, Node and Yarn. You can use Homebrew if you’re on a Mac or Linux/WSL, Scoop or Chocolatey if you’re on Windows.
