What is a WordPress Theme Framework?
A framework is an advanced kind of WordPress theme or plugin with features allowing users to customize, adapt and extend it.

Frameworks might be designed in one of three ways:

1. A Parent Theme, for Use with Child Themes
2. A Standalone Theme for Use without a Child Theme
3. A Plugin That You Combine with a Compatible Theme

WPMU Recommends

• If you’re a non-coder looking for a free framework, I’d go for Cherry.
• If you’re a non-coder and you want a premium framework with more features, I’d recommend Upfront (depending on whether you want the WordPress interface or are happy with something bespoke).
• For developers in search of a free framework, I’d recommend Wonderflux.
• And finally if you’re a developer looking for the grandaddy of all premium frameworks, with an extensive API that you can use to build client sites for the foreseeable future, Genesis (affiliate) would still be my preferred option (although Canvas comes close because of its documentation).
