    Hello.
    now people used bootstrap to create websites and themes.
    you need to first learn html,css,bootstrap ,php,jquery specially to create wordpress themes and then you can move to wordpress codex..
    when you will install a wordpress theme in wordpress you will see a theme editor page there you can see html,css,php and other files which will show seperate as header.php,footer.php etc

    WordPress is php based CMS (Content Management System). After learning WordPress you must to web design. At last you should know html5, css3, psd to html, javaScript basic, jQuery. Using this language you should create few project then go development part. Php is a server side programming language you should know that. Then you can able to learn WordPress Development.

    If you don't follow this steps, you must fall in problem to learn WordPress.

    Thank you,
    Happy learning

    WordPress is the most easy platform to work on , just go through some YouTube videos, and just focus on some basics of html5, some meta tags, and font styles and most importantly how to create the link.

    surf internet , and follow some YouTube videos.

    On a side note, and of course depending on exactly what it is you need to alter, you may want to consider creating a "child theme" for your Wordpress template and alter the files on that child theme rather than the underlying Wordpress template so that it isn't compromised.

    In case you're not familiar with child themes you can get more info here : https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    If you are strong in HTML/CSS you can easily manage to customize any theme. If you need a help please skype: creativej007

    Also you can share your work load to me, just concentrate on marketing, we will do creating design, and converting the site to any kind of wp theme.
