KickStarter

KickStarter is a starter site for Kadence — a child theme that gives you the global styling foundation Kadence doesn't offer out of the box. It solves the biggest pain points of building responsive websites with Kadence: inconsistent font sizes, static line heights, and the need to style every element individually.

With KickStarter, you define your typography, border radiuses, and card styles once — and they apply globally across your entire website.

• Variable line heights that scale automatically with font size

• Global border radius variables (SM, MD, LG) for consistent rounded corners
