Developer notes
Arcade is a child theme of Responsive (design/themes/kv_arcade) delivered by the add-on kv_theme_arcade. The add-on
installs and refreshes the theme files, checks the licence and assigns the template variable $kv_theme only while the
licensed design is on. Every Arcade template prints the stock output (or nothing) without $kv_theme, so a storefront
never breaks when the licence or the add-on is off.
Built with the Kavio theme kit 1.2.3: the kit rail (street), the kit countdown, the seller line, the buy bar, option chips, the filter sheet, the swipe gallery and the cached top products per shop.

Catalogue data only, assigned on the storefront while the design is on (safe with the block cache and the full page cache; nothing per visitor):
$company.kv_top/$category.kv_top(kit 1.2.3, street templates): the shop’s top products with the visitor’s prices and visibility (Theme\Kit::topProducts(); candidate IDs in the Registry cache, renewed when products, categories, popularity or companies change).kv_top_total= active products of the shop.$company.kv_ar/$category.kv_ar: window number and colour slot (order of the homepage street block), department, shop rating and review count, item count, holiday state (Vendor Holiday Mode).$product.kv_ar: rating and review count (Product reviews).$ar(page data):$ar.facadeon category and vendor pages,$ar.product.shopand$ar.product.moreon product pages.
The street and the directory blocks follow product, price, promotion and image changes like the stock products block (their block cache handlers are extended while the theme is installed).
