About EcoCoded
The Internet contributes two percent of global carbon emissions. The internet is beautiful but data transfer requires electricity that creates carbon emissions & contributes to climate change. With sustainability at its core, EcoCoded is a low-impact WordPress theme. The internet is not eco-friendly; let's help each other reduce carbon emissions. We use a few colors to minimize your visitor’s device power usage, load only one font, and have reduced & compressed the code. There are no fancy animations or frameworks integrated. We recommend using as few images as possible on your website, avoiding videos, and using a green hosting service. The theme is fully search engine optimized (SEO), lightweight, and responsive. It works with most plugins and page builders, such as Elementor. You can still use advertisement services, such as AdSense. The EcoCoded is simple and doesn't contain too many features; it's a beginner-friendly theme. The theme has basic accessibility features integrated, such as tab navigation and skip-to-content. If you have any ideas about reducing carbon emission further through a theme, please reach out to us. We'll implement all ideas. Use EcoCoded, and let's take sustainability to a whole other level!

Why use a child theme for EcoCoded?
Every time EcoCoded ships an update, any direct edits you made to its files are overwritten. A child theme isolates your changes — custom CSS, template overrides, additional functions — so the parent can update freely while your customizations stay intact.
- ✓Survive EcoCoded updates without losing your edits.
- ✓Override any EcoCoded template file by copying it into the child.
- ✓Add custom hooks, shortcodes, or enqueue your own scripts.
- ✓Roll back to the parent at any time by deactivating the child.

Generate EcoCoded Child ThemeFrequently asked questions
What is a EcoCoded child theme? +
A child theme is a separate WordPress theme that inherits all functionality, design, and templates from EcoCoded (its parent). You make your customizations in the child so they survive updates to the parent theme.
Do I need to know code to use this generator? +
No. The generator creates a complete, valid EcoCoded child theme with style.css, functions.php, screenshot.png, and README.txt. You can customize via the form fields, and if you want to add custom CSS or PHP later you can edit the files directly.
Will the child theme break when EcoCoded updates? +
That's exactly what a child theme is designed to prevent. EcoCoded can be updated freely without losing your customizations, because they live in the child theme files.
Is this generator really free? +
Yes. There is no signup, no payment, and no limit on how many EcoCoded child themes you can generate. The zip is built on demand and downloaded directly to you.
