A lightweight native block theme for agencies, freelancers, startups, blogs and modern business websites.

== Description ==

DX Lite is a clean Full Site Editing block theme built for the native WordPress Site Editor.

It is designed as a lightweight starting point for modern business websites, agency websites, landing pages and editorial sections. It includes responsive typography, global style settings, style variations, page templates and a curated pattern library.

DX Lite does not require a page builder and does not load external assets by default.

== Features ==

* Native Full Site Editing block theme.
* Global styles powered by theme.json.
* Responsive typography and spacing presets.
* Style variations for different visual directions.
* Header and footer built with native blocks.
* Mobile navigation overlay.
* Page templates for standard pages, wide pages, no-title pages and full-width builder pages.
* Blog index, archive, search, single post and 404 templates.
* Pattern library for hero, services, proof strip, process, about, portfolio, testimonials, FAQ, pricing, contact, CTA and article sections.
* Native Query Loop article patterns.
* Registered block styles for buttons, groups and headings.
* No bundled third-party fonts, scripts or icon libraries.

== Installation ==

1. In your WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance > Themes.
2. Click Add New, then Upload Theme.
3. Upload the DX Lite ZIP file.
4. Activate the theme.
5. Open Appearance > Editor to customize templates, header, footer, colors, typography and patterns.

== Setting the blog page ==

To use the blog index:

1. Create a page named Blog.
2. Go to Settings > Reading.
3. Set your homepage and select Blog as the Posts page.
4. Save changes.

WordPress will use the theme blog template automatically.

== Using page templates ==

DX Lite includes several page templates:

* Page: standard page with title.
* Page Wide: wider content layout.
* Page Without Title: removes the default page title area.
* Page Builder Full Width: best for landing pages and full-width sections.
* Blank Canvas: minimal content-only template.

== Using patterns ==

Open the block inserter, choose Patterns, then look for DX Lite Sections or DX Lite Pages.

Included article patterns:

* Latest Articles
* Featured Post + Grid

These patterns use the native Query Loop block.

== Recommended checks before publication ==

* Run Theme Check.
* Test the Site Editor.
* Test the mobile menu.
* Test standard pages, full-width pages, posts, archives, search results and 404.
* Test style variations.
* Test with real posts and featured images.
