 * Hey everybody,
   I’m taking a course “Intermediate Theme Developer” on creating
   block themes for WP sites. But I still don’t understand how to create sites if
   I have custum HTML-markup and CSS-clases and I need to create a site from blocks
   that are not in the catalog.
 * Thank you in advance

 * Custom HTML can be worked into your theme’s own blocks and patterns. Naturally
   it makes sense to utilize existing WP elements to the extent possible, but part
   of what makes some themes more attractive than others is when they offer additional
   elements that are not available in core WP.

 * [@threadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/threadi/) Thank you very much.
   I watched similar videos, but it doesn’t say how to make custom blocks and themes
 * [@bcworkz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcworkz/) Yeah, that’s what I’m
   interested in. When I’m given an HTML layout with my own styles and I need to
   make a website

 * If you want to create your own blocks, the manual would be the start for you:

 * If you want to create your own theme, there is also a manual for this: [https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/)
