What is it?

Sage is a WordPress starter theme that brings PHP templating with Laravel Blade and a modern front-end toolchain to WordPress theme development. Templates and components are written in Blade, so theme code can be organized into reusable pieces instead of mixed PHP and markup.

The front-end workflow is built on Vite, which provides fast builds and CSS hot reloading during development. Tailwind CSS is supported out of the box, and the theme includes block editor (Gutenberg) support.

Through the Acorn integration, Sage gives themes access to Laravel's framework features. The project is MIT-licensed and documented on the Roots website.
