(more or less).”

Who This Workshop Is For
“Freelancers, coders, and anyone who wants to be able to build
and edit WordPress themes for their clients. Realize the workshop
is going to cover basics enough hopefully to get useful information
that is going to get you able to build and edit themes. You can ask
questions about complex themes you might be looking at now –
don’t forget we can ask carry the conversation to WordPress
meetups! You don’t need to know PHP or CSS or JavaScript
deeply but you SHOULD know a bit about them. We aren’t
teaching the basic on THESE concepts – but you can learn the
basics quick on these before the workshop.”
