Lab Introduction
Lab: Overview of the Genesis Framework – Developer’s Guide to Customizing Genesis
Video Runtime: 10:07
Let me introduce the lab to you to what you will be doing. First of all, this lab is meant for the professional developer, the person who wants to know the Genesis codebase, as you will be exploring and reverse engineering the actual source code. The intent of this lab is to introduce you to the Genesis framework, its architecture, event hooks (actions and filters), the child-parent relationship, and more. You will look at the HTML and markup that is generated by the framework, explore the hooks that allow you to customize everything, and get a solid foundation before you move into the specific components.
You will want to have your sandbox project spun up and ready to work along with me, as you will retain the information when you learn by doing (hence our motto of Learn. Do.).
This entire series is for any skill level. However, it does assume that you know basic PHP. I will point out the Docx to help you out as you progress through the series.
Your best friend is code, Tonya is making the introductions.
