Can anyone recommend some authors which produces bloat free themes?

###Requirements:###

  • no bundled plugins
  • no theme option panel
  • no custom branding
  • must utilize the customizer
  • no 100+ looks and demos (one is enough)

If you fulfill these requirements just respond with "my items are awesome"
If you know someone just mention his username

Thanks!

Boy that’s a rare one :))

Sadly all you’re saying is true and i do feel a dose of guilt. Sooner or later probably the bubble will explode.

Beside what @surjithctly mentioned, i would go with @tommusrhodus , @SoloPine , EckoThemes

i was in same boat recently but could not find any theme which is not bloat free and writes 100s lines of css in page head so i had to settle with some free theme.

Hi,

I’m shamelessly jumping in this thread advertising myself. There are some of my themes which are bloat-free, like Paper, Ravage, Senator, Parlament.

cool! I’ve added you to the list :slight_smile:

What a great thread! We really needed something like that.

Let me add @visualkicks to the list - his items are pretty rad.

I am also a big fan of @ThemeBeans. Super clean stuff, equally beautiful on the front-end, back end and code editor. :smile:

To me, sadly, bloat-free = hard reject on ThemeForest.

I had a really clean, simple HTML template of mine ported to WordPress, however it got rejected for lacking of features. We then proceeded to turn it into a viral video sharing theme that then got approved, but turned the theme in a bizarre thing it was not meant to be.

I am currently battling a review process for a ghost theme being too minimal - however it was meant to be this way. I feel I now have to add unnecessary elements and features to make it ThemeForest-ready.

Refreshing to have a list of bloat-free authors, and give them some praise for not jumping ship into the mega bundle multi purpose powerhouses that only make little sense to build one client / personal website.
