Extend a parent theme safely with a child theme so updates do not wipe customizations.

Add live-preview settings with the Theme Customization API (Customizer).

Use the Customizer for theme identity settings: logo, menus, homepage, and colors.

Provide theme options carefully — prefer Customizer/theme.json over heavy options frameworks when possible.

Use The Loop to output posts the WordPress way.

Create secondary loops for featured posts, related content, and custom listings.

Query posts with WP_Query arguments for type, tax, meta, and pagination.

Use template tags like the_title, the_permalink, and the_post_thumbnail in templates.

Change layout/logic with is_single, is_page, is_archive, is_front_page, and more.

Design the single post template for full post content and meta.
