Creating a Simple Theme with WordPress

Welcome to the WordPress Themes Project book! In this book, we will build 10 WordPress themes from scratch. We will look at all of the fundamental knowledge that is needed to build great themes.

In this first chapter, we will create a very simple project. We will not really focus on creating an awesome design; the chapter is more about explaining the files that we need to create for our theme, the syntax, the dynamic snippets, and related topics.
