Comments on: What Exactly Is The Carrington Framework? http://www.wptavern.com/what-exactly-is-the-carrington-framework Where Every Drink Is On The House Wed, 08 Feb 2012 10:56:16 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Martin Hurford http://www.wptavern.com/what-exactly-is-the-carrington-framework#comment-9422 Martin Hurford Wed, 22 Sep 2010 15:58:26 +0000 http://www.wptavern.com/?p=2130#comment-9422 @Jeffro I hope you have taken the time to investigate Carrington, it really is quite amazing as well as simple once you understand the concept. I think a lot of people are overwhelmed by the number of files in comparison to a standard set of wordpress templates. WordPress templates require a massive amount of code duplication and Carrington does away with that by splitting out each item into an individual files so that a modification can take place only once but appear everywhere. Even the default 2010 theme is starting to take this approach by splitting out 'the loop' into a separate file. Carrington just takes this process as far as is possible. As you can tell I like it and I'm currently redesigning my site with Carrington JAM (Just Add Markup) so I can really get some in depth experience with the framework. @Jeffro I hope you have taken the time to investigate Carrington, it really is quite amazing as well as simple once you understand the concept.

I'm going to have to download it and take a look for myself to see what all the fuss is about. @Andreas Nurbo – Lots of people seem to be taking that approach and having the same opinion about it.
