I build my template from scratch using the pro edition. Currently the Magento 2.2.5 Installation is in Developer mode for testing etc.
It seems few of the files use an attribute not recommended by the Magento style guide:
app\design\frontend\VENDOR\VENDOR\Magento_Theme\layout\default.xml (e.g.: after="header-wrapper" )
app\design\frontend\VENDOR\VENDOR\Magento_Theme\page_layout\2columns-right.xml
app\design\frontend\VENDOR\VENDOR\Magento_Theme\page_layout\3columns.xml
This is the exception it throws:
1 exception(s):
Exception #0 (Magento\Framework\Config\Dom\ValidationException): Element 'referenceContainer', attribute 'after': The attribute 'after' is not allowed.
Line: 707
