Basically I like the _s WordPress Starter Theme from Automattic and the grid Framework Bootstrap. Additionally I´am a huge SASS fan. Why don´t combine all these three things 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! Im a huge fan of Underscores, Bootstrap, and Sass. Why not combine these into a solid WordPress Theme Framework?

Starter Theme + HTML Framework = WordPress Theme Framework ## Basic Features

The _s theme is a good starting point to develope a WordPress theme. But it is "just" a raw starter theme. Means it outputs all the WordPress stuff correctly but without any layout or design.
Why don´t add a well known and supported layout framework to have a solid, clean and responsive foundation? Thats where Bootstrap comes in.
Confused by all the CSS and SCSS files? - Combines Underscores PHP/JS files and Bootstraps 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.

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`:
- 1 "theme/theme_variables"; // <--------- Add your variables into this file. Also add variables to overwrite Bootstrap or UnderStrap variables here - 1 "theme/theme_variables"; // <--------- Add your variables into this file. Also add variables to overwrite Bootstrap or UnderStrap variables here
