Their first theme release was <a href=\"https:\/\/wptavern.com\/wordpress-themes-team-releases-stacks-a-community-theme-for-building-slide-decks\">Stacks<\/a>, a single-purpose theme for creating slide decks that can be used for a presentation.<br \/>The team has now <a href=\"https:\/\/make.wordpress.org\/themes\/2023\/08\/11\/blue-note-the-second-community-theme-is-released\/\">released<\/a> its second community theme called Blue Note, inspired by American jazz record label \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluenote.com\/\">Blue Note Records<\/a>.&#8221; It&#8217;s more versatile than Stacks, as it can be used for writing\/blogging, a personal website, portfolio, nonprofit, memorial, event, or other types of landing pages.<br \/>Although Blue Note does not package any style variations, it comes with 14 beautifully designed patterns inspired by jazz record covers. The patterns enable users to quickly add images with text or quotes with multiple designs for each. There are also patterns with striped images, an artful way to break up a single image, paired with text. Users can select from multiple headers and footers, among seven page templates and four template parts.<br \/>Blue Note was designed by Automattic-sponsored contributor Beatriz Fialho, inspired by her work on the State of the Word slides in 2020. It was developed during the WCEU contributor day with the help of more than a dozen <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/WordPress\/community-themes\/blob\/trunk\/blue-note\/CREDITS.md\">contributors<\/a>. \u00a0The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/WordPress\/community-themes\/\">Community Themes GitHub repository<\/a> has other themes they are working on which are in various stages of development. <br \/>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/themes\/blue-note\/\">Blue Note<\/a> on WordPress.org and download it for free via the Themes browser inside the admin. <br \/>SHARE THIS:<br \/>LIKE THIS<br \/>I checked it out on my Galaxy s23 and it breaks in a poor way.
