Snap
Snap is a Moodle theme that makes online learning an enjoyable and intuitive experience for learners and educators.
Snap's user-friendly design removes barriers to online learning, enabling you to create the modern, engaging experience user's expect on the web today. Snap's intuitive layout is optimised for online learning, focusing on the things that matter - your learning activities and content.
Personal menu
Snap’s easy to use navigation gives users an elegant way to perform frequent tasks. All your courses, deadlines, messages and feedback are always one click or tap away to save you time.
Courses with personality
Every course in Snap let's teachers add a cover image to give it a unique personality.
Courses in Snap allow you create individual topics, so learners understand where their focus should be without being confused or overwhelmed by lots of links and options.
Each topic shows students their progress, which is updated inline with ajax as you progress through the course.
Every activity in Snap shows students the due date, if they have submitted, and if feedback is available - without having to open the activity.
Teachers are shown how many users have submitted an activity, and if they need to grade any submissions.
Teacher's workflows for creating and structuring content in their courses are also optimised to save time. With no need to turn editing on, inline resource/activity deleting, the ability to move multiple resources/activities at once, inline topic creation and many other ways to help teachers give learners the best online learning experience.
Working seamlessly across every device - from desktop to mobile, Snap’s responsive Twitter Bootstrap based framework provides a consistent, professional experience for learning whenever and wherever you want to learn.

Under the hood:
Like most other Moodle Themes today Snap runs on Bootstrap 4, jQuery, Sass, and inherits from the Boost theme.

Screenshots
I confirm that the proposed edit solved the issue. We will now test the theme with some users.
$plugin->requires = 2015111604; // Requires this Moodle version (3.0.4).
Idea to really make Snap shine even more: was wondering if there was a way to make Snap only load 1 course section at a time (like the phenomenal OneTopic course format which is the only format I think that can do that for now)...as instructors develop more robust courses with more activities, gamification paths, and resources, the page load time goes up for themes and the standard topics / weeks course formats...but the OneTopic format has the "secret sauce" of only loading 1 section (the current highlighted section) at a time significantly reducing page load times for busy instructors and students alike...
Thank you Guy, David, and Stuart for your truly phenomenal work and sharing with the Moodle community!
