There’s been a fair bit of talk in the theme development community in recent times about Theme Frameworks for WordPress. This session will gather together some of the theme development gurus who use theme frameworks in our WP Community to explain a bit about why they use them, which frameworks they use, and their benefits and drawbacks in a Theme Development workflow. Our panel includes
Dee Teal – The Web Princess who uses Genesis Framework by StudioPress
Bronson Quick – who uses WordPress Twenty Eleven and _s (underscores) the starter theme developed by Automattic
Tony Cosentino – who uses the iBuilder framework by iThemes
Peter Wilson – who built his own ‘Big Red’ framework
The panel will be chaired by Peter Bui who doesn’t use frameworks at all.. actually, Pete doesn’t even use WordPress… so you can’t get more impartial than that (not that there’s any kind of competition at stake… or mediation likely to be required… )
