Develop Your First Low-Code Block Theme
https://learn.wordpress.org/lesson/different-types-of-themes-overview/
With the WordPress 5.9 release, a new type of theme known as a block theme
became available in the WordPress theme repository(insert period); These
new themes place the power of design customizations into the hands of
users.
In order to make big layout changes, adjust colors that weren’t already
hard-coded into, or even move a logo from the left side of the screen to
the right, users needed to have a strong grasp of CSS to move key elements
of their websites or even change colors. Here’s an example:
The Site Editor allows users to move big elements of their site, change
colors with a the click of a button, and customize their theme exactly to
their choosing. There are many more options and flexibility to block
themes. See the difference in the screenshot below of changing the text
color to blue:
What do users love about classic themes? Add period at end of each
sentence.
* Easy to use right out of the box; . Get started writing immediately
without worrying too much about layout.
* Ideal for new WordPress users.
* Write, edit and publish posts or pages without thinking about complex
customizations.
What do users love about block themes?
* Create custom blog posts and also pages using drag and drop builder.
* Create amazing (omit hyphen) looking pages where a user can add almost
anything you need.
* Design a website from top to bottom without needing any coding
knowledge.
Hybrid Themes: A theme that contains a mix of both classic theme elements
and block theme elements. These themes borrow a few elements from either
the classic or block theme. PHP coding is required to build a hybrid
theme. Some examples might be themes that interact heavily with other
WordPress plugins, such as eCommerce plugins. As block themes become more
and more powerful, however, less of these will (likely!) need to be
created.
Universal Themes: These themes can work entirely either like a classic
theme or like a block theme–(delete hyphen). (Add period) They are built
using both the Site Editor and PHP code. Historically, these themes were
used to bridge the gap between what the block editor (at the time)
couldn’t do, and what the customizer could do. Largely, however, you’ll
find themes will either be a block theme or a classic them(add e).
What will this course focus on?
Designing block themes only requires knowledge of the point(omit
hyphen)and(omit hyphen)click Site Editor. It is possible to create a block
theme using no code at all. (omit hyphen)although This course will also
teach you the very basics of theme.json. to set you up for Block theme
designing success allows so you to have more control over of your layout
with a few simple codes that you can copy and paste.
How Themes Are Designed
As an intermediate user, you’re probably familiar with finding,
installing, and experimenting with both classic and block themes in the
WordPress.org theme repository. Have you ever wondered how themes are
often developed, from the start of a creative idea to finished product
(available in the WordPress.org theme repository)? If so, read on!
2. Design It
Once a theme has been dreamed up, many designers turn to other tools, such
as Figma or Photoshop, to begin drafting what their WordPress theme will
look like. Historically, it was hard to look at a lot of code and picture
what the end result would be. (Insert period) ; These tools (Figma,
Photoshop, and beyond) helped designers visualize the end result before
they passed along their ideas to developers, who would code this into a
PHP file. (Omit =)
3. Move The Draft Into WordPress
One of the most exciting things about developing block themes is that it
eliminates the need for the “moving” step(insert period)–(omit hyphen) In
other words, moving from a Figma or image file into WordPress itself.
Once a Figma file has been created, revised, edited, and finalized, a
designer (insert hands) often turns the design over to a developer to take
their dreams and code it into reality using a mix of PHP, HTML, CSS, and
Javascript.
