How it works?

Implementation description with an example

Volodymyr Rudnytskyy

This tutorial is helpful for Plone skins designers who have some experience with creating custom look and feel for Plone and want to release their work as file-system Plone Skin Product. Plone developers might find this product useful as well.
Page 2 of 10.

Solution is very simple. In a few words: all plone skin development are TTW. When skinning finished custom Plone skin product is generated by Plone Skin Dump with simple click. Resulting file-system product is based on custom skin layer selected by designer.
As illustration let's take a look at Alternative Plone Skins initiative before and after Plone Skin Dump  is available.

Before. Alternative Plone Skins were distributed as .zexp of the custom skin layer lately. Users could manually install the skin following some simple steps.

After. At the moment all the skins are offered as file-system Plone skin products generated by qPoneSkinDump.
