A really sparse starting point for Tumblr theme development. The code and guidelines are based on my own requirements. Its unlikely that I will include Tumblr post loops / logic, as these are specific to the theme you are creating.
Always try and keep theme blocks, variables and strings, as close to Tumblr's own guidelines as possible.
Add comments when needed, but be sensible. Don't include comments inside blocks as the comment will appear several times in the rendered HTML.
Wherever possible, use the localized theme strings and variables that include labels or phrases.
