So What is
Actually wrong
with
Drupal Theming ?

From the frontend perspective ?

sorry devs you can moan later

2 things:

Divitis

Rich Markup (tm)




  

    


      
hello im drupal


      

        always add another div

css overload

27 css files in drupal 7 stark

css overload

5 classes for each field



 
    wait im just a piece of data

Drupals Frontend Problems:

1. the markup

2 .the css








why

Blame ?

The "Developers"

The Themer









One markup
to rule! em all








Nobody told us what to do!







Pretty please...

TWIG

Anger driven development ;)




Amsterdam




San Francisco










PHP template










TWIG

a little bit of french elegance






Lets make a plan

Dont 100%

Build on sensible use cases!





Dont Dumb it down

Themers are not that Dumb

the Frontend experience

  • Start from nothing
  • Dont solve all problems
  • Provide tools
  • Visibility
  • consistency
  • dont dumb it down

New awesome [sjeit]

or 666 reasons why Drupal8 is better than Drupal7

HTML 5

HTML5


      

        
      

      


        
        

          ...

Drupal8 DONT support

ie 6

ie 7

ie 8

Pretty markup

<div id="badpractive">...</div>

37% less id *

counting at alpha9

* kinda

Drupal CSS

Drupal 7


      <body class="html facepalm whateverthefuck ">

Drupal8


      <body class="">

CSS Stucture

Build on SMACSS

CSS architecture (1887918) 

    .notification {
        /* general styles for all notifications */
      }
      .notification--info {
        /* blue color adjustments */
      }

css filenames

Approved

B.A.T. Namescheme

CSS file organization (nid: 1887922)

D8 File Structure


Drupal 8 core

/themes

provide visibility

themes now lives in "/themes"

or "sites/ *** /themes"

D8 File structure modules

modulename/templates/*.html.twig

wheres that template ?

DEBUG!


      $settings['twig_debug'] = TRUE;
settings.php

$settings['twig_debug'] = TRUE;

DEBUG!

Drupal7 Mothership (tm)

Mothership

Compiled

the twig templates are compiled

.scss -> .css

(yes its the same thingie that compiling thing)

SQL in a theme ?

Who does that ?

Bad Developers

Themes are markup & css!
