Why these themes
- Free, including for client work
Every theme is GPL-licensed. Use it on personal, client and commercial sites, change whatever you like and ship it — no purchase, no per-site fee.
- A live demo for all 15 of them
Each theme page links a working demo you can click through before you download, so you are judging the theme rather than one screenshot.
- Still shipping releases
Five of them shipped a new release in the past month, including the two most-installed, Shapely and Sparkling.
- Documented, with somewhere to ask
Every WordPress theme here has its own documentation, and setup questions go to our public support forum.
