    The easiest thing to do is to start with a template like "Twenty-Ten" or there is another one called "Bones WP Development Theme" I wrote an article about it on my website, but because I am a new member here I cannot share the link. Bones is a basically a blank slate with HTML5/CSS3 that is more or less a skeleton for Wordpress Themes. It's easy to code on and provides a good start with WP Development. Good luck!

    I know HTML, CSS & Java Script. I came to know that PHP is like new version of HTML.
