Getting Started with Theme Files

NOTE: A rudimentary understanding of CSS, HTML, and PHP will be helpful for you in this class.

Theme Bootcamp
We believe that one of the best ways to learn is by giving hands-on training and examples that people can then take and use in real world experiences.

The goal of the Theme Bootcamp is to do just that. The team will guide you from start to finish on how to take a static, HTML website and integrate it into WordPress. If you have background in HTML and CSS but haven’t yet figured out how to use a solid CMS (content management system) to create dynamic and easily editable websites, this is the Bootcamp for you!

When this 4 hour Bootcamp wraps up, it’s our hope that you will have a solid foundation to move forward as a true WordPress theme developer.

This Session
In this session, we will cover what files are necessary to set up a WordPress theme. We will create a theme in class so you can see how the whole process works.
