In the virtual world, trends are always changing. Previously there was HTML 1.1, and then came HTML 2.0, followed by version 3.2, 4.0, 4.1 strict, and now it’s HTML 5.0. The same case applies to CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), it started with CSS version 1, then came CSS 2 followed by CSS 2.1, and now it is CSS 3 that is currently used by developers to impart elegance to their websites. And the situation is no different when making WordPress themes.
Previously, companies used to offer their clients a variety of designs to choose from to build a theme for their website. Now the trend has changed a bit and customers have started getting their own concepts and designs converted into WP themes. Also, while creating themes in earlier days, companies used to practice hand coding, but then software for the same came out. However, some companies discovered the pros and cons related to software coding very early on and went back to the old one. Now, big companies only develop themes through manually written code, which is validated by W3C.
