You want to start a blog, have a portfolio site, sell your products, or create a community. You've installed WordPress and it doesn't look at all like you would want your site to be presented. The current TwentyNineteen Theme from WordPress comes with the installation, and you might install a free theme that you like or buy a premium one. But still there will be changes needed.

So how do you customize a WordPress Theme? 
This class provides you with examples to customize the WordPress Theme parts of the current, fresh new TwentyNineteen Theme (released February 2019). We'll make TwentyNineteen Theme transform to a small business website, install a child-theme, install plug-ins, change the functions.php, work with widgets, HTML and CSS to achieve the transformation. You can use this process for any WordPress theme!
