Shila theme for Drupal 8

An Atomic Design and Pattern Lab friendly starting point for new Drupal 8 themes.

A Pattern Lab generated style guide can be found here (online style guide might not be up to date).

Background

This theme is not meant to be usable as is. It is meant to be a starting point for development of new themes.

This theme is also meant to demonstrate Drupal template compatibility and Pattern Lab integration made possible by the Drupal Edition of Pattern Lab and Data Transform Plugin. For this reason many templates in the theme are actually unmodified Drupal Stable base theme templates.
