Package Exports
- generator-roots-child
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (generator-roots-child) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

FAQs
- Why are no styles reflecting?
- If the 'WP_DEV_MODE' constant is set to true, be sure to run
$ grunt dev
to watch and compile changes. If 'WP_DEV_MODE' is not set or is false, minified assets are enqueued, so be sure to run$ grunt
which compiles and minfies CSS and JavaScript. While developing, I suggest addingdefine( 'WP_DEV_MODE', true )
to wp-config.php.
