How to start with making theme from scratch? Necessary files and etc...
I am very new to Vanilla forums and would like to learn how to create a custom theme.
Inside the theme folder I have added next files and folders:
- mytheme/addon.js
- mytheme/screenshot.png
- mytheme/design/custom.css
- mytheme/views/default.master.tpl (just saying Hello world to see if its working)
Unfortunately I don't see the theme inside the dashboard.
What am I missing? What are the necessary files and what is the basic configuration to at least see my theme inside the dashboard?
Vanilla version: 2.8.3

Theme name must match excact to name in addon.js
Capitalization matters.

Guys, thank you for the info. Actually, everything was fine but one thing. Inside addon.json I had an extra comma.
{ "key1": "value1", "key2": "value2", // if I have a comma for the last key-value pair I have an invalid JSON....just had to remove that comma }
