Magento has been the hot-favorite of e-commerce
merchants across the globe, no matter whether
they run a large or small e-commerce
store. Moreover, with the recent upgrades
leading to the release of Magento 2.0, it can be
said that there has been a massive overhaul
altogether. Magento 2.0 is indeed a clean
upgrade featuring a default HTML5/CSS3 setup that
can impact the way how themes are defined.   In
this blog, we would be taking into account all
such features that render Magento 2.0 more
purposeful for store owners.

  following are the two most prominent ones
• All items are directly placed under the app
  structure

  that allows access to the template, layout and
  other files of that module
• This will allow developers to get more, better
  customization opportunities without making any
  change to core site functionality.

  its own CSS and LESS in theme core. The CSS
  preprocessor includes two independent
  preprocessors

  it enables the deployment of LESS in Magento
