Description
In Building WordPress Themes: The Step-by-Step Guide you will learn how to take a static HTML site and convert it into a fully functional WordPress theme and plugin. We'll start with a primer for PHP to understand the underlying language WordPress is written in, as well as explore some tools to help you work. Then, we'll take a look at our static site and convert it!
By the end of the course you will:
- Become familiar with Underscores, a popular WordPress Starter Theme
- Know how to create and customize blog posts, pages, and header and footer areas
- Create menus and widget areas
- Build a plugin to help us extend WordPress
- Understand CMB2, a popular WordPress tool for adding custom information to our WordPress site
- Learn best practices for creating WordPress Themes and Plugins
What are we building?
Since it's something we all know and love, we'll create a restaurant website! We'll build basic pages like about and contact, add a blog, and create a nice, interactive menu that's easy to update!

Explanations of what is going on on the screen are good.
Unfortunately it went for me too fast directly to the detail level of the code, and jumping from one file to another without general explanation of what are all these files about and at which point they need to be modified in general.
As for me these general explanations are vital for the course level / target group.
Otherwise the information received remains chaotic and you need to make sense out of this by your own / or get another course :-(
Very good explanations !

So far, it’s easy to follow the lecture, good speed and clear voice to catch words. There are some terminologies that I didn’t understand. Wanted to know the examples of the php usages.
