Stop building themes from scratch
The starter Theme Developer Kit gives you a professionally structured WordPress theme skeleton that follows modern best practices. Fork it, customize it, ship it — in half the time.
Key Features
- Modular Architecture — Clean separation of template parts, components, and assets. Every file is where you expect it to be.
- Elementor Ready — Pre-registered widget areas, custom dynamic tags, and theme location support baked in from the start.
- WooCommerce Templates — Custom shop, product, cart, and checkout templates with hooks documented and ready to extend.
- Component Library — 25+ pre-built components (hero sections, pricing tables, testimonial grids, feature blocks) as both PHP partials and Elementor widgets.
- Build Tooling — Webpack config included for Sass compilation, JS bundling, SVG spriting, and image optimization.
- Accessibility First — WCAG 2.1 AA compliance out of the box. Skip links, ARIA landmarks, focus management, and screen reader text included.
Who It’s For
