Using themes and plugins

Yay! πŸ₯³

You have reached the last topic in the first lesson which makes you awesome. 😎

Now, let’s learn a few things about WordPress themes and plugins.

Themes and plugins play an important role in helping developers build intuitive and fully functional WordPress sites. Themes are what you use to change the appearance of your website and plugins are pieces of code compiled together to help you to extend the functionality of WordPress.

Since WordPress doesn’t provide all the features you need to create customized websites out of the box, plugins play a vital role in WordPress design and development.
