Basics is not a framework! It’s a small set of files and functions to make sites developpment with WordPress easier. Nothing more, nothing less. If you want to know more about Basics, feel free to take a look at my long french post B comme Basics.

In short, Basics use:

• Good Practices, thanks to HTML5 Boilerplate,
• Semantic HTML5 markup (<figure> and <figcaption> too),
• Microformats,
• ARIA roles,
• WordPress 3.0 and 3.1 features,
• And more to come, stay tuned!
