# Theme created by Theme-Gen This was a theme created by Theme-Gen, a CLI utility that takes an existing theme and a starter site, and makes a new theme by copying the existing theme and applying small changes to it from what it can see on the starter site. For example, if I have the blank-canvas theme and a https://fredricksonstarter.wordpress.com/ starter site that contains a homepage design with font and color settings, I can create a new fredrickson theme. ## Commands To create my-new-theme based on blank-canvas and fredricksonstarter.wordpress.com: ``` wp --require=wp-content/lib/theme-gen/init.php theme-gen fredricksonstarter.wordpress.com blank-canvas my-new-theme ``` To run unit tests: ``` cd ~/public_html/bin/tests/isolated && phpunit --testsuite=theme-gen ``` ## More Information - PCYsg-yPL-p2 - D62155-code - https://github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso/issues/52848 - pd2qbF-l-p2
