I'm considering using html5blank.com as a starter theme for a new WordPress project. Can you tell me if it's still actively maintained and suitable for modern web development? If not, what was its original purpose, when was it last updated, and what are some current, actively maintained alternatives for a blank WordPress theme?
Search for 'html5blank.com' to find relevant information and its official project page/repository. Navigate to the main GitHub repository for html5blank (e.g., 9thwall/html5blank). Locate and identify the date of the last commit or significant update in the repository's history. Based on the last update date, determine if html5blank is still actively maintained and suitable for modern web development. Identify and list actively maintained alternatives for blank WordPress themes or modern web development frameworks. Synthesize all findings to answer whether html5blank.com is recommended, its original purpose, last update date, and suitable alternatives.
State that html5blank.com was a minimalist WordPress starter theme or HTML5 boilerplate. Confirm that html5blank.com is no longer actively maintained or suitable for modern development. Cite the actual last commit date found for the primary html5blank GitHub repository (February 12, 2017). Mention that actively maintained alternatives include other 'blank WordPress themes' like Underscores (_s), or modern boilerplate frameworks such as Bootstrap or Foundation.
