I’m looking for a clean, organized WordPress blog theme that isn’t built around images yet still looks good. The blog will be used for short code tutorials, like “How to _____ in (some language here)”, so it won’t have images for each post.
Any recommendations?

Of course there will be images in the demo (nature of a marketplace) but you can see how sleek and professional it is and how it does not need them
