Trying to Understand Cinnamon Spices Themes Development Workflows

Post by mintBTW »

Dear Dev Team,

I student interested in researching development workflows.

I have looked in Devhelp and could not find anything about the front end development of themes.
This raised a lot of questions about workflows implemented in there development,
  • Is there a standardized workflow by which Themes on the Cinnamon Spices are developed?
  • Is there documentation or a list of elements such as icons, menus, buttons, window-boarders, and so forth to be considered by developers when approaching a new Theme?
  • Are there templates that front end development can use to be comprehensive in there design briefing?
  • What documentation are front end developers providing to back-end developers in the creation of Themes?
  • If this documentation does not exist, could I see them?
  • If they do not exist would I be beneficial for me to develop it?
Thank you very much for your time in responding this question, i hope I have posed it in the right place.
Look forward to hearing back from you.

Welcome to the forum, mintBTW.

This is a user forum where users help other users. I think your questions would be more appropriate to post on Linuxmint: Discussions. The dev team and those who help the dev team are on GitHub.
