Short video that goes over how to install your Underscores.me starter theme into your local wp-content/themes directory. We then go to WPTest.io and download an XML file that will upload all kinds of test content into your local development environment. You should now have your blank starter theme with all the WPTest.io filler content ready to go.
Now it is time to start integrating Bootstrap within the starter WordPress theme and start creating your premium theme!
We put together a short video that goes over the files included in the starter theme we will be using to build our premium WordPress themes. Underscores.me includes all the files you need to start development on a WordPress theme. The video below briefly describes the included files and how they are used.

This is a quick video that briefly goes over our plans with this course. The end goal is to take our starter theme from Underscorces.me and turn it into one of our most popular WordPress themes, StrapPress. Once we have the base of StrapPress built, we will start adding other features and styles. This will be similar to the themes over at GentsThemes.com.
Our tutorials are going to use Underscores.me as the starter theme for our tutorials on building a premium WordPress theme. Couple reasons why we picked to use this theme:
