WordCamp Europe organizing team gets bigger every year, and with 6 people dedicated to bring you the best visual experience \u2013 we wanted to give back to the community even more. That\u2019s why we started to work on an all new and improved WordCamp theme.<\/p>\n

A new and improved WordCamp theme<\/h4>\n

If you have ever setup a WordCamp website you know that it can be complicated and often frustrating. There are a lot of limitations one has to work around. We believe it shouldn\u2019t be this hard and we want to make it especially easy for smaller teams that don\u2019t have the design and development resources necessary to create a beautiful WordCamp website.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re working on a new WordCamp theme using the latest version of _s<\/a>\u00a0as a solid base. A theme that is more flexible, has more layout options, and improved A11y. We just introduced our ideas to the community and would love to hear your feedback as well<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A head start on design<\/h4>\n

Our design team is thinking even further than just providing a solid foundation and more flexibility. We also want to give you a head start on design. Separately from the new WordCamp theme, we\u2019re also working on modular CSS and a living style guide, created with SCSS. This style guide can be used as is or customized to create a beautiful website. It is fairly extensive and helps style the most important elements of the theme like colors, fonts, and different components\u00a0and widgets. To apply it to a WordCamp site you can use the “Remote CSS” plugin.<\/p>\n

We will be releasing the style guide open source to the community. Our vision is that other people will fork it, evolve it, and release more versions for the community to choose from in the future.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be sharing more info and details on this\u00a0soon, so stay tuned. For now we\u2019d like to show you a sneak peek preview of the style guide:<\/p>\n
