Why make another WordPress starter theme?

My reasons are that I'd like to:

• Learn
• Practice
• Have a very low-footprint starter theme.

I like CodeKit. Do I have to use Grunt?

Absolutely not. I like automation task runners based on node.js, like Grunt and Gulp because they make it really easy to work as a distributed team.

If you're working alone, or just prefer CodeKit, knock yourself out.

Why are you using Grunt instead of Gulp? Gulp's faster, you know.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like Grunt and am more comfortable with it. I may switch to Gulp later, but that's less of a priority than making this theme as lean and mean as possible.

Don't use for parent theme

This project is a moving target and like underscores or Sage, it shouldn't be used as a parent theme as I don't plan on maintaining backward compatibility.

Whose code did you borrow for this project?

_s (Underscores) provides a base template file organization. Skel is a skeleton framework for building responsive sites and web apps.
