NTT DATA theme

The NTT DATA theme is built on the principles of Atomic Design methodology by Brad Frost, structuring components into atoms, molecules, organisms, templates, and pages.
This approach ensures a scalable and maintainable design system, enhancing the development process with reusable components.

Key features of the NTT DATA theme include:

• Accessibility and Usability: Committed to inclusive solutions, the theme ensures compliance with accessibility guidelines, offering an intuitive, responsive interface with clear user feedback.
• Single Directory Components (SDC): Used to create components by grouping all necessary files (Twig, YAML, CSS, JS) in a single directory, simplifying management, enhancing maintainability, and integrating seamlessly with Atomic Design principles.
• SDC Display: A complementary module that allows you to configure which component an individual field uses or determine the component for a given view mode, providing flexible and precise control over content presentation.
• Performance Optimization: Includes minified files, caching, and asynchronous resource loading for optimal performance.
• Reusability: Comes with a variety of reusable components, accelerating development while maintaining high accessibility standards.
