The document discusses an introduction to Drupal theming. It covers how Drupal's template system works, what Drupal theming is defined as, and the tools needed to get started with Drupal theming, including an understanding of HTML and CSS, a Drupal install, and a code editor. It also lists some Drupal projects that are useful for theming. The presentation plans to then move past the slides and do a live theme building demonstration.
