Name

The Bartik theme is named after Jean Bartik, one of the original programmers for the ENIAC computer.

We are saddened to hear of Jean Bartik's death on March 23, 2011, just two months after Drupal 7 was released. Take some time to learn more about her and the women who invented computer programming.
