Currently in development and testing. Do not attempt to install on ProcessWire versions prior to 3.0.54 or you will get a fatal error.

This admin theme is intended as a starting point and framework for Uikit-based admin themes. For the most part it uses the stock Uikit look-and-feel, which is very minimal. We have not attempted to design an admin theme here and instead have focused on getting the framework in place so that others can come in and lead on the design side.

This module uses a custom Uikit theme developed in the manner outlined here: https://getuikit.com/docs/less.

When we are creating production CSS, we execute npm run compile in the uikit/ directory, as outlined on that page. The admin theme uses the resulting CSS file located in uikit/dist/css/uikit.pw.min.css. It takes a little while to run that full compile, so it's not ideal for development.

During development, we instead use the uikit/custom/pw.css file. In my case, PhpStorm automatically generates this file every time I make a change to any of the .less files. If you also want to use that development file, edit the AdminThemeUikit.module file and update the const dev = false; to const dev = true;. This will put the admin theme into development mode, which makes it use the development CSS file, and also disables navigation caching, so that you see changes instantly. Remember to change it back to false once you are production ready.

As of the time this is written, Uikit 3 is in beta and seems to have new versions available almost every time I check. As a result, I upgrade it often. If you'd like to do the same, here's one way to go about it:

1. Rename the current /uikit/ directory to /uikit-old/. Don't delete or overwrite it yet!

2. Download or clone the latest Uikit from https://github.com/uikit/uikit and place it into /uikit/.

3. Copy the /uikit-old/custom/ directory to /uikit/custom/. This is the directory that contains the custom ProcessWire Uikit theme.

4. Re-compile Uikit (or just the CSS). For more info see:

• Compile Uikit from GitHub source
• Uikit build processes

5. Feel free to delete the /uikit-old/ directory when you have successfully upgraded Uikit.
