The base theme included with the Bear Starter Kit,

Bear Skin 8

Bear Skin is the default theme for the Bear profile, which is a Drupal starter kit installation profile that can be used for building a new Drupal site. Bear Skin does not rely on the profile. Therefore, it can be used as a standalone starter theme.

Getting started

Before getting started, make sure that you have the latest version of node.js and yeoman installed. It is preferred to install node via n using curl -L http://git.io/n-install | bash.

Also, you will need to have composer installed. On a Mac, this is easiest with homebrew.

Bear Skin needs the Components Libraries module to run. You must install it prior to enabling the theme. Additionally, you will need to enable both search (core) and responsive image (core).

When ready to work, refer to Gulp tasks for front-end development to get started.
