    • style.scss - media queries and basic print style
    • _base.scss - optimized for 320px to 480px
    • min-width: 481px - _481up.scss - larger mobile devices
    • min-width: 768px - _768up.scss - tablet and basic desktop
    • -webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5, min--moz-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5, min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5 - _2x.scss
    • _mixins.scss
@import 'grid.less'; # defaults to 12 column, 960 pixel grid system. Customize by overriding three variables (after the grid.less import has been declared):

@column-width: 60;
@gutter-width: 20;
@columns: 12;

@total-width: 100%; # for fluid (percentage-based) grid rather than a fixed pixels

Process

  • Use base theme
    • HTML5
    • Mobile first
      • Make sure mobile devices don't get desktop size CSS or content
      • 320 And Up
    • If available, use server-side CSS preprocessing through theme or plugin.
      • LESS and limited SCSS/Compass in PHP (all shared), full SCSS/etc. with Ruby (easier on VPS)
      • Semantic CSS with grid and vertical rhythm systems
      • Web fonts and icons
  • Etc.
  • Start coding
    • Setup a development site using wp-base-install
    • Set project based CSS preproces variables and mixins
    • Import test content
    • etc

or

  • Remove sample post, page, links
  • Import from production or other materials
    • Etc!
