Free Backdrop Theme built on Tailwind CSS v3 (Based on Basis) - Seeking Feedback & Ideas!

Hi everyone,

I am currently working on a new free theme for Backdrop CMS built on top of Tailwind CSS v3 and sub-themed / based on the core Basis theme.

The goal of this project is to provide a clean, modern, and flexible starter / base theme for developers and designers who want to leverage the power of Tailwind CSS within Backdrop CMS.

Current Features & Progress:

• Tailwind CSS v3 Integration: Fully integrated and structured for easy extension.

• Based on Basis: Inherits the robust structure and best practices of Backdrop’s core Basis theme.

• Background Customization: Includes built-in settings/options to change background styles easily.

• Dark Mode Support: Built-in Dark Mode toggle out of the box (as seen in the screenshot).

• Developer-Friendly: Designed to be a flexible starter theme for custom client sites or standalone themes.

(Attached is a preview screenshot showing the current progress and dark mode toggle)

I’d Love Your Feedback & Ideas:

Since this theme is still under active development, I would really appreciate your input before a formal release:

1. What features or options would you like to see in a Tailwind-based Backdrop theme?

2. How do you prefer Tailwind CSS compilation/assets to be managed in a Backdrop theme workflow?

3. Any suggestions regarding layout settings or developer tools integration?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts, suggestions, and feedback!

Best regards,
