Good Files to Have in my Wordpress Framework?

Hi,

I am creating my own Wordpress Framework and i was wondering what are good files to have in there. At the moment i have:

  • 404.php
  • archive.php
  • attachment.php
  • comments.php
  • footer.php
  • front-page.php
  • functions.php
  • header.php
  • humans.txt
  • index.php
  • page.php
  • sidebar.php
  • single.php
  • style.css
  • template-custom.php

Are I'm missing some files? and do you any other have any suggestions for me?

I recommend using Automattic's "underscores" or "_s" theme as a starting point.

https://github.com/automattic/_s ( http://underscores.me/ )

If you want to use this a framework ( like I do ) you can use it right out of the box. Or you can take what they have and strip out anything you feel you don't need.

In any case, this will be one of the best references out there.
