Classic is the official default theme for PrestaShop, originally introduced alongside the Symfony-based storefront architecture. Maintained directly by the PrestaShop core team, it serves as the reference implementation for theme development and is the baseline storefront theme shipped with standard PrestaShop installations.
- Official reference theme: Developed and maintained by the PrestaShop core team as the canonical example of a correctly structured PrestaShop theme.
- Synchronized with core releases: The theme repository follows PrestaShop core branches directly, ensuring each branch corresponds to a matching PrestaShop release line.
- Open-source license: Released under the Academic Free License 3.0 (AFL-3.0), making it freely available for use and modification.
- Extracted as a standalone repository: Separated from the core PrestaShop repository to allow it to be made optional in future versions and to simplify independent updates.
Classic is the right starting point for developers building custom themes or merchants who want a clean, officially supported foundation. Because it tracks PrestaShop core development branch-for-branch, it is also a reliable reference when debugging theme compatibility issues or learning how PrestaShop themes are structured.
