Stafmans WordPress Wiki

Frankly, I'm just learning to code, so don't expect any cleverness here. Coming from mostly configuring Wordpress sites, frameworks, themes, plugins I got interested more and more in "How it really works". It means understanding the code and start developing myself.

Now I like to search and learn from what I would consider "best practices" or at least wise lessons from experienced developers. My goal is to build my own Wordpress Theme and for this I'm gathering 'knowledge'. This Wiki I use to collect all kinds of usefull information for myself and my learning project, and to structure it so I can find it when I need it.
