Built by developers for developers, and the marketers who rely on them.

BASE is a HubSpot theme with a real system underneath it. Connected theme settings, repeatable module patterns, centralized styling, and a lean build make it easier to maintain, extend, and hand off.

Website evolving from hard-to-update modules and workarounds to a consistent, scalable foundation

The Challenges Developers Face

You already know the pattern. A site looks clean at launch, then slowly turns into one-off modules, inline styles, and workarounds.

Every "small" change means untangling decisions you didn't make.

BASE is built to be the opposite of that: a foundation that holds up as the site grows.

Why Developers Choose BASE

BASE gives developers a more organized starting point, with theme-level structure, centralized styling, and repeatable patterns that make the site easier to update, extend, and hand off.

Real Theme-Level Structure

BASE's fields.json handles global settings, typography, buttons, forms, menus, and layout at the theme level instead of page by page, module by module.

Centralized Styling

Theme settings feed shared CSS variables in main.css, so global styles and module behavior stay aligned.

Repeatable Module Patterns

Each module uses consistent, recognizable patterns, making it easier to understand where content, layout, and styling changes should be made.

Easier to Extend

Connected theme logic lets you build forward as site needs grow without starting from scratch.

Full-Site Coverage

BASE includes page templates, blog templates, system templates, and global partials. It is not just a landing page toolkit.

Less Unnecessary Custom Work

A broader module set covers common needs, so custom development can stay focused on work that actually needs to be custom.

Marketer Flexibility Without Developer Chaos

BASE gives marketers a cleaner editing experience inside a more guided system. They can build and update pages on their own without breaking styles or creating cleanup work for developers.

Marketers get more independence. Developers get a cleaner system. The site stays on brand.

When Custom is the Right Call

BASE reduces unnecessary custom work, but it does not replace true custom development when a project needs it.

When you need more than a theme, SmartAcre's in-house team can take BASE further through custom HubSpot CMS development and larger website builds.
