Air-light is a minimalist, dependency-free WordPress starter theme under 20 KB, based on Underscores. It follows the original WordPress way of building themes with PHP templates, Sass, and vanilla JavaScript, with built-in accessibility and Gutenberg/ACF support.
Use cases
- start a new custom WordPress theme project
- build a lightweight fast-loading WordPress site
- create Gutenberg blocks with ACF in WordPress
- develop an accessible WCAG-compliant WordPress theme
- replace bloated WordPress starter themes

When to choose
- you want a minimal, fast WordPress base without heavy frameworks or templating languages
- you value accessibility and tiny CSS/JS payloads
- you work with Gutenberg and ACF regularly
- you prefer vanilla WordPress PHP templating
When to avoid
- you want a full-featured theme with page builders, widgets, comments, or sidebars out of the box
- you prefer block-based full-site-editing-first themes
- you need a headless WordPress setup with a JS frontend framework
