Appearance is most important for any site. Unfortunately, while MediaWiki is
very advanced in functionality it lacks flexibility in terms of appearance.
Vector skin is great, no doubt about it, but it seems there is no other
alternative. Almost all wikis in the world look like Wikipedia. Of course one
can apply their own CSS and customize the site's layout or even create their
own skin in PHP but both solutions demand a lot of knowledge and effort and in
the end nobody really does so exept maybe for some big commercial sites.

My proposal is the creation of a frontend that will help users with little or
no experience at all to easily produce all the CSS needed to change their
wiki's layout.

This is my proposal for GSoC 2014. Please leave your feedback here or the talk
page of the proposal:
