Wrap Up

This series of posts (read from the bottom up) started with the premise:

This series of posts explores the basics of creating WordPress themes for one's use; as opposed to creating one for redistribution.  The distinction is important as we will only focus on developing it for a particular use and thus greatly simplify the effort. 

This effort also is focused on giving one maximal control over the site (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) with minimal use of programming (WordPress and PHP).

In the end, we have created a fully functional WordPress theme that is ready to be styled to one's liking.  A copy of the result can be found at: https://github.com/larkintuckerllc/barebones.

 Enjoy.
