- Removing _s SASS ... no need for basic styling. Thats Bootstrap´s job.
- **0.3.1 AUG. 12th 2015**
- Adding bower dependency manager and replacing GRUNT taskrunner with GULP
- **0.3.0 Mar. 23th 2015**
- Streamlining some code, adding extra "sticky" area (sticky posts above the main content area inside an extra loop). Fixing some child theme issues (now its really child theme ready...really...trust me...)
- **0.2.9 Mar. 10th 2015**
- Adding a new theme customizer option. It lets you add a code snippet right before the closing </body> tag.
For example for Google Analytics, Google Tag Mananger, Pingdom etc. Just copy and past your code to the input field and save the setting.
So you don´t have to edit the theme source file´s directly and your theme stay´s updateable

I’m a huge fan of Underscores, Bootstrap, and Sass. Why not combine these into a solid WordPress Theme Framework?
That’s what UnderStrap is (or will be…)
At the moment, UnderStrap is in a very early stage. But if you wan’t, feel free to use it for your own WordPress theme!
## Basic Features
- Combines Underscore’s PHP/JS files and Bootstrap’s HTML/CSS/JS.
- Comes with Bootstrap (v3.3.6) Sass source files and additional .scss files. Nicely sorted and ready to add your own variables and customize the Bootstrap variables.
- Uses a single and minified CSS file for all the basic stuff.
## Starter Theme + HTML Framework = WordPress Theme Framework
The _s theme is a good starting point to develop a WordPress theme. But it is “just” a raw starter theme. That means it outputs all the WordPress stuff correctly but without any layout or design.
Why not add a well known and supported layout framework to have a solid, clean and responsive foundation? That’s where Bootstrap comes in.
## Confused by All the CSS and Sass Files?
Some basics about the Sass and CSS files that come with UnderStrap:
- The theme itself uses the `/style.css`file just to identify the theme inside of WordPress. The file is not loaded by the theme and does not include any styles.
- The `/css/theme.css` file provides all styles. It is composed of five different SCSS sets and one variable file at `/sass/theme.scss`:
- Don’t edit the files no. 2-4 files/filesets or you won’t be able to update it without overwriting your own work!
- Your design goes into: `/sass/theme`. Add your styles to the `/sass/theme/_theme.scss` file and your variables to the `/sass/theme/_theme_variables.scss`. Or add other .scss files into it and `@import` it into `/sass/theme/_theme.scss`.
