Buddy is an easy to use, easy to understand Wordpress theme that is fully featured with (almost) everything that a community could need.

This theme is definitely a fantastic starting point to get things 'off the ground' and I would suggest it over the many themes I have tried prior to it.

- Overall the code quality is superb and everything is well noted as to make modifications easier, there's also a child theme in the download which makes modifications that much easier too.

- I haven't experienced any noticeable bugs or issues by default.

- Design is pretty good however there are issues which I noted during extensive use and testing by myself and 20 others. Most notably users struggle to differentiate between blog posts as there's no visible separation between each.

There's also been comments on the mobile layout where the widgets simply clutter the screen and make the site too hard to use; so it would be nice to see an update fixing these issues if possible.

- Documentation is well written and when followed most, if not all questions that I initially had where answered.
