I'm giving up. Adrian nagged me (nearly to death) to join the list and forward this :)
Documentation. Is anyone interested in helping me prepare a theming reference. The reference from the apis is not good for designers.
Ultimately I would like to be able to automatically produce the html snippets, for each theme function, regardless of what is the template engine.
My plan is to:
1. catalogue all available theme_ functions in core (for all practical purposes this is done, might need tweaking, but the code is there)
2. go through the theme_ functions and construct dummy(lorem ipsum) style calls to extract a formatted html.
3. look into producing a drupaldocs like description.
This suggestion is closely related to testing as well. How would you approach it? Any ideas?
There are a few catches. At the moment I will try and target 4.7. If everything works, we can have a look at setting up a website with this.
Cheers, Vlado
