Precursor Child Theme
Flow
Flow is a lightweight microblog child theme for Precursor. Publish short posts, links, thoughts, and project updates on your own website while maintaining complete ownership of your content.
Flow requires the Precursor parent theme and works beautifully with RSS, WordPress feeds, and the ActivityPub plugin for decentralized publishing.
About Flow
Your own stream of thoughts, posts, links, and updates.
Flow is built for people who miss the simplicity of early microblogging but want ownership, control, and independence. Instead of publishing into a noisy social media platform, Flow lets you run your own short-form publishing site on WordPress.
Use it as a personal timeline, project log, developer journal, creative notebook, client update stream, or private social-style website.

Whether you're sharing links, documenting a project, writing daily thoughts, or building a community around your work, Flow gives you complete ownership of your timeline.
Why Flow?
A quieter alternative to the endless feed.
Flow is inspired by the immediacy of social posting, but without algorithms, ads, platform drama, or someone else deciding who sees your updates.
It is your site, your archive, your stream, and your voice — built on WordPress and powered by Precursor.
