To create a custom theme from this bases you can run the command composer create-theme <themename> from the StoryBlend folder. This will create the theme in the themes/custom folder. The argument is optional. When omitted the theme will be called StoryBlend.

BEM Methodology

The CSS in StoryBlend is written following the BEM (Block Element Modifier) methodology. BEM is a naming convention that helps create clear and maintainable code. Here's a brief overview:

Block: Represents a standalone component that is meaningful on its own.

.block {}

Element: Represents a part of a block and has no standalone meaning.

.block__element {}

Modifier: Represents a different state or version of a block or an element.

.block--modifier {}
.block__element--modifier {}

Ensure your CSS adheres to the BEM methodology for consistency and scalability.
