How NOT to design a default theme
Carl Jacobi
Invert, always invert (man muss immer umkehren)
Don’t sketch and share ideas
Ignore the work done before you
Don’t make WordPress look like a CMS
Don’t use a grid
Use lots of color and texture
Disregard the theme customizer
Forget about mobile devices
Create a mobile theme
Don’t use percentage based widths
Don’t use the rem (root em) unit
No CSS3 gradients
Don’t use web fonts
Choose a fancy font with a limited character set
Pre-processing is for wimps
Don’t get any help from the community
