Replacing Bartik in Backdrop

This year I led the effort to replace the default theme (Bartik) in Backdrop CMS with a new theme called "Basis".

In this talk we'll go over:

  • UX, design, and code architecture considerations
  • Front end architecture we landed for CSS, TPL's, and Javascript
  • Stumbling blocks
  • Future plans for the theme
  • Differences between developing themes for Backdrop vs Drupal
