Component-based theming in Backdrop

I've previously ported Gin to provide a modern admin theme to Backdrop -- and have been working behind the scenes to provide a new base theme for front end development, which I'm aiming to unveil at Backdrop Live. I'd like to get feedback and demonstrate:

  • use of CSS custom properties
  • how to sub-theme it simply

Opening Session

Welcome and introductions. We will ask everyone to introduce themselves and share a something about their experience with Backdrop CMS or what they hope to learn at Backdrop LIVE.

Project lead, Nate Lampton, will share a short summary of where the project stands and what we have accomplished since our last Backdrop LIVE.

Closing session

This is a time for reflection on what we have learned at Backdrop LIVE, what we plan to do with our new found knowledge/experiences, and where we are headed as an opensource community. 

We welcome everyone to participate and share your Backdrop LIVE experiences.
