We’re going to step into the process of starting your own WordPress theme by taking a basic html and css site.

If you’ve ever developed a website from wireframes or mockups to html, turning it into a WordPress theme is just a few extra steps.

Even if building custom themes isn’t a future goal, getting in and doing this can help when editing other themes and understanding the inner workings of WordPress.
