Documentation
We like to make sure the things we build are usable. Crazy, I know.
We’re working to provide documentation for most, if not all, the themes and plugins we’ve built. Some themes that are privately developed for a client may not be included, or ma have limited access, but most other projects are available. If there’s a plugin or theme that we’ve built that you have questions about, please let us know and we’ll do our best to respond, and to share that information as well.
You can view each GitHub repository or view all of OIT Design’s projects at NCSU Github (NCSU campus login required). Note that access to view some repositories is restricted.
