Discussing my GSoC 2025 proposal for Volto Themes with Professional and Creative themes.

Hello Plone Community,

My name is Hassan Ali, and I am excited to apply for Google Summer of Code 2025 with the Plone Foundation. I am particularly interested in the Volto Themes project and am currently preparing my proposal.

I plan to design and implement two distinct themes for Volto:

  1. Professional Theme: A clean, minimalist theme suitable for business websites, using neutral colors like white and gray, and a structured grid layout to reflect professionalism.
  2. Creative Theme: A vibrant, colorful theme designed for educational or community websites, featuring interactive elements such as hover effects and bright colors like red and yellow.

I will use React to develop these themes, ensuring they are responsive (suitable for both mobile and desktop) and customizable for Plone users. I have reviewed the Volto documentation and set up Volto locally to better understand its theming structure.

I would appreciate your feedback. Do you think these themes will be helpful to Plone users? Any suggestions to improve my proposal would be highly valued.

Thank you for your time and support. A special thanks to the mentors, Rafael and E.S. Tyrer, for their continued guidance.

Best regards,
Hassan Ali
