NodeBB creating your own themes

[psychobunny]

Over a weekend I tried creating a custom theme from scratch with NodeBB, here's my progress (click the images for the full-size version):

I was attempting to port a phpBB3 theme over called metrolike, which is closer to a traditional theme that you'd expect. It's still mobile responsive and seems to work pretty well on the devices I've tested.

It's just a proof in concept and as a result of this what I really want is to create a how-to guide for theming NodeBB. So hopefully I can get that out soon... stay tuned!

long way to go but I thought I'd post what I have so far on github for now:

stay tuned for the NodeBB Theming Guide! In the meantime, check out the plugin development guide

Got a lot of stuff on my plate at the moment but I've promised quite a few people this including @trevor who's been making some pretty good looking stuff on his site
