This is a light-weight, feature-rich WordPress theme that I created from scratch, that I use on my own website. The intention of this theme is to be minimally reliant on 3rd party plugins while providing the same features that most popular plugins would provide. It does this by relying on the built-in WordPress automation and features. This theme is built to be easy to work with from a coding standpoint.

This theme is not available on the official WordPress theme library. In order to use it on your own WordPress site, you first need to upload/FTP the folder /m20T1-1.x.x-Live/ into /wp-content/themes/. From there the m20T1 should automatically appear under "Appearance -> Themes" in your WordPress admin section.
FYI, this theme is configured for my personal website. I did however keep the personalized features and styles limited to the editor-style.css, theme.json and the style.css files. You will need to go into those files to make necessary adjustments to the visuals and other configuration changes.
This WordPress theme is just a personal pet project of mine, and I am happy to share the code, however, there really is no support for it other than any issues that I come across while working on it for my personal website.
