What this does is to tell Drupal: Hey I'm a new theme, this is what I do. It's set out like this:

• Name: This is what we are calling our theme, following the same name we have given to our themes directory.
• Description: This is a simple description of the theme, and it shows in the Drupal admin interface.
• Type: This is saying that this is for a theme; if it was for a module, it would be module instead.
• Core: As this is for Drupal 8, we need to specify that it is for Drupal 8.x.
• Base theme: We are leveraging our theme files, styles, JavaScript, and templates off of the bootstrap library. This, of course, can be based on any other theme.

Now that we have done this, we are ready to start making a Drupal site and add it to our custom blueprint theme later on.
