I just read about the existence of after_setup_theme in this blog post. I'm not experienced in Wordpress development, so I was wondering if there exists some kind of list with all the things that should be in called with after_setup_theme?

I can't find good documentation about it, so can you also explain something about the function itself and what the best way is to use it?

after_setup_theme is a wordpress hook which fires after the theme is loaded

after_setup_theme runs before init and is generally used to initialize theme settings/options before a user is authenticated. According to the Codex: This is the first action hook available to themes, triggered immediately after the active theme's functions.
