Summary

In this chapter, we learned how to play with modern CSS3 transitions and how to customize the look and feel of the theme by adding animations and using custom fonts. Try to customize your theme with other effects and change the default font to one that fits better within the graphic style of your theme.

In the next chapter, we will make the theme fully responsive by adding specific Bootstrap classes and testing it for mobile and tablet devices along with discussing some tips and great free tools.
