Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Hi Jeff,
Wondering what your plans are for advanced layouts in d8?
For example using gpanels in header footer in subtheme template to achieve a more complex layout was d7's route.
Advanced integration with panels and display suite for a specific content type layout and even on a node by node basis this could be applied.
I was wondering what your plans are for AT in this regard. If there would be anything like https://www.drupal.org/project/bootstrap_layouts for AT?
Kind regards and thank you for your time.

I'm considering doing some Layout module layouts (like BS, DS or Redux ect), they would be good.
However, the core theme actually has a lot of technology for this baked in already, all I need to do is document it. For example adding a region is pretty much one line of text in the right file. You can add entire rows up to six regions and simply select layout for it, it's very trivial to build very complex layouts in AT8, but I need to document it!

Sounds super, any documentation would be super then.

kingfisher64 CreditAttribution: kingfisher64 commentedIs there anything I can search for that would cover how AT works with twig etc? As in a tutorial elsewhere that is similar. Not sure of the exact phrases (or relevant one's to use).
Many thanks

Marking as fixed, this is a great addition to the theme, thanks for pushing this forward.
As for complex header layouts, I'm strongly considering this approach and building a module that includes common header layouts all rolled into one block: #2717643: Customizing page.html.twig

Will have a play around asap.
The complext header/footer layouts module sounds exciting, if you need testing, I'll do my best.
