Sweaver offers a visual interface for completely changing your Drupal theme without knowing any CSS. Through a bar that sits at the bottom of your screen, you can change the fonts, colours, dimensions etc of all your design elements and see the changes real-time. If you are happy with the changes, you can easily save it as a revision to activate immediately or save for later.

Advanced users will find a highly pluggable and configurable system that allows full manipulation off the interface and extendability of the functionality.

What's in a name?

Themer would have been the obvious name for this module, but it's already taken. Jyver was then raised on one of our meetings, derived from jyve, the nick of the themer that initiated this module. But wait, Swentel is also involved, so what about Swyver? Hmmm, sywve appeared to be a dirty word back in the days. Ok then, Sweaver? That appears to be slang for sweaty beaver according to the Urban Dictionary... but we couldn't care less, so Sweaver was born!
