    "description": "This is an example theme.",
    "version": "1.0"

Start building some awesome themes!
-----------------------------------

[](#start-building-some-awesome-themes)

Let's say we have bootstrap theme in our application with the following structure:

```
public/
    |-- themes/
        |-- bootstrap/
            |-- theme.json
            |-- assets/
                |-- css/
                    |-- bootstrap.css
                |-- img/
                |-- js/
                    |-- bootstrap.js
                    |-- jquery.js
            |-- views/
                |-- layout.blade.php
                |-- auth/
                    |-- login.blade.php

```

First, we need **theme.json** manifest file.

```
{
    "slug": "bootstrap",
    "name": "Bootstrap",
    "author": "Jhon Doe",
    "description": "Bootstrap theme.",
    "version": "1.0.0"
}
```

```
>

        Bootstrap Theme Sample

            @yield('content')

```

Please take note that we need to use **Theme::asset()** to load our theme asset files. The bootstrap is a theme slug defined in our **theme.json** file.

In our controller, load the view using the following code:

```
public function getLogin()
{
    return Theme::view('auth.login');
}
```

Now, for our login.blade.php:

```
@extends('bootstrap::layout')

@section('content')
    Log In

        {!! csrf_field() !!}

            Email

            Password

             Remember Me

            Login

@endsection
```

Note that we are using **@extends('bootstrap::layout')** in our login view, where bootstrap is a theme slug defined in our theme.json and layout is our layout file.
