This course is the essence of my experience with submitting themes to themeforest. In these lectures, I will share everything I know about creating WordPress themes.

You should have no problems passing themeforest's code review as long as you have a great design!
This is not a Design/CSS/HTML/PHP course!!! If you are looking for that, I am sure you will find a lot of other resources. In this course I will just focus on WordPress functionality. I will load some prewritten basic CSS I did for the theme that we will create, the goal is just to create WordPress functionality and understand WordPress in more depth. I will however teach you how to organize your CSS, compile SASS and minify your files automatically. Also you should have some basic PHP knowledge. I will not teach you PHP from scratch here, so if you are interested in taking this course, I suggest taking a beginners PHP course first!

Hey there! I am Ali Alaa, a front-end web developer. Years ago I discovered my interest in web development, especially the front-end side. I started exploring the field from HTML/CSS/JS to WordPress theming and JS frameworks. I have been working as a front-end developer for about 7 years. After all these years, I decided to start creating on udemy and share my knowledge with you.
