Accessible Breadcrumbs

Bootstrap 4 has improved upon breadcrumb accessibility, but the base theme Bootstrap does not currently support Bootstrap 4. This sub-theme modifies the markup for the breadcrumbs so that the ordered list is wrapped in a <nav> tag to signify to screenreaders that the list of breadcrumbs is navigation and also applies aria-current="page" to the current page's location within the breadcrumb navigation hierarchy.

Better Figure and Figcaptions for inline images and media

As per the markup recommendations in How do you figure?, this sub-theme uses figure="role" on figure elements. Similar is applied to media types.

Twig block, extends, and parent()

Many of the templates in this sub-theme take advantage of block, extends, and parent().

Cleaner .theme file

This sub-theme takes advantage of the base theme's plugin system for preprocessing variables for templates.
