Minimum viable product?
31st October 2022While I have done my styling for websites that I have, this one has used third-party themes since its inception. This approach does have its advantages because you can benefit from the efforts of others; it can be a way to get added functionality and gain an appearance that is more contemporary in feel.
Naturally, there also are drawbacks. Getting the desired appearance can be challenging without paying for it, and your tastes may not match current fashions. Then, there are restrictions on customisation. Where user interfaces are available, these cannot be limitless. A fallback is to tweak code, but ever-increasing complexity hampers that and an automated update can erase a modification, even if child themes are a possibility on at least one content management system.
For me, the drawbacks now outweigh the advantages, so I have created my own design and that is what you now see. Behind the scenes, there is a back-to-basics approach and everything should look brighter. As the title of this post suggests, this is a start, with further tweaks coming in time. For now, I hope that what you find will be sufficient to please.
