# Summary
Omega was one of the first base themes to introduce responsive layouts in a configurable manner. This allowed (and still allows) any site builder/editor full control over their layouts through an intuitive interface. Omega 5.x introduces a highly enhanced layout builder, and SCSS generation on the fly for layouts so that all processing is handled in the administrative interface, and not on the frontend.

vagelis-prokopiou CreditAttribution: vagelis-prokopiou as a volunteer commentedHello himerus. This is a personal site I am currently building (http://drupaland.eu/). I used the 8.x-5.0-alpha3 of Omega. I have found no problems whatsoever with the theme, although I have overridden many default options (mainly regions). If you have more specific questions, I am happy to answer them. Thanx for all your hard work man.

Screenack CreditAttribution: Screenack as a volunteer and commentedI've made some simple tweaks to the omega/README.txt that expands on the manual theme creation process. It's my first patch commit — so I'd love any feedback.

arkjoseph CreditAttribution: arkjoseph as a volunteer commentedWhere are we with GULP implementation. Is it too early to start on this? This is probably an area i can possibly contribute.Will omega5 support GULP? The documentation is talking about phpSASS...?

SushiKong CreditAttribution: SushiKong commentedNew to Drupal 8.
Can anyone tell me how do I create my own regions using Omega 5 to be same as Omega 3 in Drupal 8. Here is the code i added in .info.yml file. But for some reason showing in Layout Builder and is not working when i put a block in the region. Is there any a part I'm missing?
Here is my code:
And here is the original Omega 5 .info.yml code

vagelis-prokopiou CreditAttribution: vagelis-prokopiou as a volunteer commentedFutureITS, you also have to edit your page.html.twig file and print the new regions.
See here Adding Regions to a Theme.

SushiKong CreditAttribution: SushiKong commented@Vagelis, I was able to make the new regions show in Omega 5 by editing my page.html.twig. Now how do I add the new regions into layout builder settings. Like if you go Omega 5 theme settings > Layout Builder there are HEADER, MENUS, PREFACE etc. how do I add my new regions inside breakpoint region group.

vagelis-prokopiou CreditAttribution: vagelis-prokopiou as a volunteer commentedUnfortunately, I can't help you with this FutureITS. I setup all my layouts in the sass code... I haven't build any layouts through the UI.
