As a long-time fan of using themes for releases, the themes for work leading up to 2.0 were mainly:
âś…Content Reuse (both inside and outside, esp. with LMSs)
âś…Ease-of-use (initial setup and on-going site authoring/management)
âś…Visual design (mostly image support and typography)

And in terms of content reuse, the unique 'chromeless' feature of the Open Course Hub supports the seamless embedding of content into your institutional LMS (for example in #Canvas or in #Moodle, as shown below)👇 pic.twitter.com/Z3w8Fdl26X
