DrupalCon Austin 2014: IMPLEMENT FOUNDATION OR OTHER FRONT-END FRAMEWORKS IN YOUR THEME

Speakers: jmoughon
How do you get popular frameworks such as Foundation or Bootstrap to work with your theme? What about features that don't work right away? Are sub-themes a good approach?

In this session we will cover an opinionated and tested approach to implementing themes with front-end frameworks. The talk will use Foundation for examples, but the principle can be applied to other frameworks, such as Bootstrap.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Understanding the purpose of front-end frameworks.
How to go from prototype to theme.
How to implement the framework's features.
Overriding Drupal's defaults to work with the framework.
You don't need the Kitchen Sink: Thoughts on features and performance.
A note about sub-theming.
