WordPress Open Source Project

[Historical Forums User]

##IDEA:

I have been toying with the idea of starting an open source project on github for WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla developers. This project would revolve around creating, sharing and maintaining a CMS starting points for developers.

##Wordpress Example:

• Basic theme with no markup and only WordPress core CSS selectors built in
• Bootstrap and Foundation integrated themes with only the required markup
• Bootstrap and Foundation integrated themes with only the required markup
• Function.php best practices
• What ever else the community could come up with

##Nutshell:
Create a great starting point for developers who like the freedom of creating their own themes, but don’t want to take the time need to manage all the set-up.

Start with WordPress and eventually support Drupal and Joomla.

##Questions
Is this needed?

Would you use a project like this if it was well maintained?

Interested in helping me start this project?

I’d say no. That’s sort of what Underscores is trying to accomplish. There are so many starter themes out there, what do you see your project doing that the other ones aren’t?
