Publish Date : April 9, 2019

WordPress Theme Development in 2019 under #WPSpartans300 Mission. Absolutely Free training step by step. Let’s learn Modern Coding Standards.

This is Task 74 and 17th class of WP Theming Phase and we’re getting started with Core Concepts of WordPress Themes and Templates from scratch. Through out this training, we’ll explore WP Codex step by step. We’ll create a custom theme from ground up.

In this task, we started our journey to be Top WordPress Developers in 2019. My aim is to help, guide and motivate young freelancers so that they could start earning via job market places such as Fiverr and Upwork.

We have covered HTML, CSS, JS, jQuery and PHP Basics. By the end of this training, all Spartans will be in a position to upload their themes not only to WordPress Repo but also to Theme-forest, Creative Market, Mojo Themes and Template Monster etc site.

We’ll follow PHP , HTML, CSS and WordPress standards laid down by the official and core team of WP.

In this 17th class of absolutely free WordPress Training, discussed steps beyond Dev Spartans Kit 2019. First of all, we talked about three different ways to deal with WP themes:

1) We create our own custom theme from scratch.
2) We customize a pre built GPL License theme from repository. (Child theme or without child theme)
3) We totally modify an existing theme with our own custom functions etc.

Then we discussed about:

1) Colors
2) Fonts etc

We used Google Fonts to download Roboto and Dokdo (Pairings).
We selected a color palette from Adobe Color Official Website. We talked about contrast and complementary along with accent color.

#WPSpartans300 is a mission. When I launched this training session, a great number of young freelancers from Pakistan, India and Bangladesh started taking interest. WOW.

Therefore, I put all my energy to make this journey wonderful and full of success. So far, we have covered HTML Fundamental Training, CSS Basics, JS Concepts , jQuery Crash Course, Bootstrap, Speed and Optimization, SEO 2019 Complete Guide and now here comes WordPress, Spartan.

Let me tell you that without passion and commitment, you won’t be able to be a Rockstar WordPress Developer. It does take a lot of hard work ; however, the end result is awesome.

I will guide you step by step so that you could get results from your WordPress Training Mission. Get ready to excel as a professional developer. It’d be fun and exciting adventure.

300 Spartans will learn to unlock WP Codex. APIs will be the ultimate goal. From PSD to WordPress Conversion to WordPress Based Mobile Apps, Spartans will conquer their fears. 300 Lucky WordPress Developers will enjoy lucrative benefits of successful online projects.
