Adherence to theme requirements

[sheedy]

Does this theme meet all of the requirements for a theme to be accepted, as outlined below?

• https://docs.shopify.com/themes/development/theme-store-requirements/theme-file-requirements
• https://docs.shopify.com/themes/development/theme-store-requirements/content-style-guide

No not all, but it will set you in the right direction. To give some quick examples.

It doesn't include a Password template. Also the admin "Customizer' section is very minimal as you would expect with a starter theme.

Happy to review any PRs that you want to open to fill the gaps. The content guide and other theme requirements were updated not too long ago so haven't been updated here, and are not on our roadmap to update as Slate will be taking Timber's place as our recommended starter kit for building themes.

Is there a link to slate?

Not just yet, we're still working on a few things and don't have a launch date set.

If anyone is interested I have a drop in Flexbox Grid replacement for the default Slate CSS Grid. https://github.com/MatthewKennedy/Flexbox-grid-replacment-for-Shopify-Slate

Nothing wrong with the default CSS Grid that comes with the Shopify Slate npm theme, but with the Flexbox Grid you get some of the bonus Flexbox usability baked into the grid.

Regarding Slate:

• The NPM package is indeed public and the documentation site is live. This was done awhile ago to help with early test groups. The original private NPM group and a docs site behind a password was really hurting external testing.
• The plan is to make the repos for Slate public shortly and put clear messaging that the Timber framework and Skeleton theme are no longer being maintained.
• Everyone is welcome to use Slate from the links above, but keep in mind it is in beta and until the repos are public there's no designated spot to ask questions about it.
