About

This plugin generates the custom CSS for the WordCamp Europe 2017 theme and a style guide using KSS methodology.

This is a modified version of WordCamp Europe 2016 CSS plugin by @scottsweb.

Getting Started

Install node.js.

npm install gulp
npm install

You are done.

gulp

Use gulp for on–the–fly updates of your code (templates, js, css) and style guide.

gulp build

This will create a build directory for project assets and a styleguide directory from your KSS documentation in CSS without browser-sync live preview.

Directory Structure

Feel free to modify everything in the source directory and keep in mind that styleguide and build directories are rebuilt with each gulp build command.
