With WordCamp Asia just around the corner, it’s time to get ready for Contributor Day! The Themes Team will focus on developing Community Themes and reviewing themes. If you’re interested in building block themes and contributing to the Community Themes project, we’d love for you to join us at the Themes table.
We’ll also be covering the WordPress.org theme guidelines. If you’re looking to create and submit themes to the WordPress Themes Directory, we’ll walk you through the entire process. You could even become a WordPress theme author in just one day!
