Name
Each theme requires a unique name. It can then be referenced in a site using this name.
optional configuration
Parent theme name
A theme can have a parent theme. If the parent is defined, everything (style, assets, templates, properties) are inherited from that parent. It is possible to override parts in the child theme.
Template-Engine
Each theme can define a template engine. If an engine is defined, it cannot be changed for a site. If no template engine is configured, the default twig like system template engine (system) is used.
Active modules
List of modules that are required for this theme. This list can be extended in the respective site.
Overwrite templates
It is possible to override single template files in a child theme or in the site. A template with the same name must be created in the /templates folder of the theme or site. If the template is in a subfolder, the subfolder must also be created accordingly.
