Coding a theme from scratch

Presented by Scott Gallant, • Code Creators Track

In this presentation we’re going to create a WordPress theme from scratch. We’ll begin with a photoshop mockup of a website, and a blank starter theme.  We’ll slice and dice the design, and build it into a functioning WordPress website right before your eyes.  We’ll also touch on some foundational stuff along the way, like, using a CSS grid, making a site mobile friendly and the anatomy of a WP theme.

Level: Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced designer, Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced developer

Prerequisites: HTML, Some CSS, Some PHP (not super necessary), Some (barely any) Photoshop
