Are people still writing WordPress themes by hand? I know we are. Here at OFC, we're not a fan of certian WP patterns (child themes, installing a bunch of plugins, deploying your changes outside of git, etc).

We decided to make our lives easier when building out custom themes by building a new composer package. When this package is installed in your theme folder, you can now upgrade your theme code like any other composer package. You can also rapidly scaffold out new layouts, loop over posts and taxonimies quickly and easily.

There's still a lot that this package can't do, but we're pushing new updates all the time. Check it out here:
