This document provides an overview of skinnDriva, an OpenCms skinning framework. It introduces skinnDriva and its benefits, including easier template development, better workflow for multiple sites/sections, and less work. It then explains how to use skinnDriva by importing required modules, adding code to templates, bundling files into a module, and preparing formatters. The final step is setting a theme property to apply the skin to a website section.
