Chapter 13. Theming Drupal

Now that you know how to build a site using the toolkit provided by Drupal 8, it's time to learn how to make it look the part. In this chapter, we will look at applying a design to your website—a process often referred to as theming.

In particular, we will look at the themes included in Drupal Core and the differences between them as well as how you can customize them.

Then, we will look at adding new themes from the Drupal community site and extending them to get the results we are looking for.
