     2 ABOUT STARK

     3 -----------

     4 

     5 The Stark theme is provided for demonstration purposes; it uses Drupal's default

     6 HTML markup and CSS styles. It can be used as a troubleshooting tool to

     7 determine whether module-related CSS and JavaScript are interfering with a more

     8 complex theme, and can be used by designers interested in studying Drupal's

     9 default markup without the interference of changes commonly made by more complex

    10 themes.

    11 

    12 To avoid obscuring CSS added to the page by Drupal or a contrib module, the

    13 Stark theme itself has no styling, except just enough CSS to arrange the page in

    14 a traditional "Header, sidebars, content, and footer" layout. See the layout.css

    15 file for more information.
