Track:
Theming
Experience:
Advanced RUNVSC is a modular theming framework.
If that sounds strange to you, rest assured; you're in the majority. However, for the developers ("themers" included) who build heavy production sites -> we need to have structures that are flexible, re-useable and powerful -> which is what PPTs are designed to do.
Therefore, RUNVSC remains indicative of Pre-Process Theming (PPT) where almost everything is handled before the TPL. To this point, it embraces the Drupal 7 front-end philosophy and encourages:
- contributing "starter themes", as opposed to fully built themes, to assist front end developers (FEDs) getting closer to target, faster
- theme function repositories where FEDs can save and pinch plug and play solutions
- designing in a browser - showing clients mockups in their browser
- Agier theme development
This session will cover this philosophy as a reality; using a RUNVSC sub theme as a functional and practical use case proof of concept.
Intended audience:
Advanced Themers, Developers, Designers who want to program.
