Hey there,

I'd say it depends on the amount of customization that you are doing. When you run init.sh on the project, it will set the theme name and info into a number of places (version files, build file, etc).

That theme id is used internally by ZK to generate unique URLs which will force the client to load the content set for your theme. Due to that, it's really a good idea to keep these names (and URI) exclusive for each of your themes.

This said, if you are planning to have multiple themes using the same structure but slightly different colors, and you have access to the premium download for the ZK theme pack, there is a utility in the theme pack source that lets you build variations on the same themes but with different color palettes.

The src jar contains the buildable project, and instructions on how to build in the readme.md file located at root.

You can find it in the theme back src jar, on maven or in the premium downloads section.

Make sure you download the src jar (not the binaries).

The source jar is just the runnable project which can be used to generate the projects based on swappable palettes. I recommend that you follow the readme included in that project.

The short version is:

• create as many color palettes (one for each resulting theme) in the theme-pack\palettes folder
• edit the build.palettes.yml config file to set which palettes you want to build
• add your version of the theme template project under theme-pack\template (if you have made modifications other than changing colors)

you can then either build all themes at once (will generate one theme per palette you created), or build one of the palette. (see readme file for the relevant commands)
