About Loupely Canvas Lite
A minimal editorial theme with a clean default design and a one-switch blank canvas for people who would rather write their own HTML and CSS. Out of the box you get a styled header, navigation, footer, and readable typography in a calm sage palette with Lora and Inter. Turn on Start from a blank canvas in the Customizer to strip the design back to a full-width passthrough and build everything yourself.

Generate Loupely Canvas Lite Child ThemeFrequently asked questions
What is a Loupely Canvas Lite child theme? +
A child theme is a separate WordPress theme that inherits all functionality, design, and templates from Loupely Canvas Lite (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 Loupely Canvas Lite 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 Loupely Canvas Lite updates? +
That's exactly what a child theme is designed to prevent. Loupely Canvas Lite can be updated freely without losing your customizations, because they live in the child theme files.
Is this generator really free? +
