LifestyleMagento 2 Theme Development (Udemy.com)
Learn to create powerful themes for Magento 2 and imrpove the look and feel of your store.
Created by: Pixelpro formación online
Last updated June 2018
Our take
Based on the ratings of 823 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in June 2018. No course pays to be reviewed.
A short, paid introduction to Magento 2 theming, about 2.7 hours across 37 lectures, taught by David Piqué of Pixelpro. The syllabus moves from URL structure and Less through layout files, layout debugging, and a final section that turns a PSD into a working theme. It's marked Beginner Level, but the audience list names Magento 2 users and designers, one reviewer calls it intermediate and says it needs a running setup, and the instructor recommends basic HTML and CSS. Think of it as an orientation to how theme files fit together, not a full build.
Students give it 4.5 stars from 823 reviews, and the praise is consistent: clear English, concise explanations, and a grounding in basics that some experienced Magento developers admit they skipped. The Less section gets singled out as the best covered. The complaints are just as consistent. Low-star reviewers say it is too basic, that a lot of code is copied and pasted without much explanation of why, and that the PSD example is simple, with no dropdown menu or slider. Two thought too much time went to Less and Photoshop instead of Magento itself. More than one wanted the whole thing to build one theme from start to finish. It was last updated in June 2018, and one reviewer notes it runs Magento 2.3, so expect some drift.
Next to The Complete Magento 2 Course and the module development course it sits beside, this is the narrow, front-end-only option. That is the trade. If you have hours to spare and want depth, the reviews say this won't deliver it. If you want a quick map of where theme files live and how layout and Less connect before reading the official docs, it does that job well, ideally on sale.
Pros
- Clear English and a pleasant instructor, praised even in low-star reviews
- Covers Less, layout files, and layout debugging in 2.7 hours
- Reviewers with Magento experience say it fills gaps in basics they never learned properly
- The final section walks from a PSD file to a working theme
Cons
- Last updated June 2018 on Magento 2.3, so reviewers say it is not on the current version
- Low-star reviews say code is copied and pasted with little explanation of why
- The PSD example is simple: no dropdown menu, slider, or full theme built end to end
Good and clear english, Good explanation. The course is basic but all main points about the topic are in it.
Marked Beginner, but one reviewer calls it intermediate and says it needs a running setup; the instructor recommends basic HTML and CSS.
What you will learn
- After the course the student will be able to completely personalize themes of Magento 2, or create their own

Saludos! Mi nombre es David Piqué, resido en Madrid / España y soy un entusiasta de las nuevas tecnologías, especialmente si tienen que ver con la web o el móvil (al cual le dedico demasiado tiempo últimamente)
Hace 8 años comencé mi carrera y mi especialización en CMS debido a la demanda de este tipo de trabajos por parte de clientes extranjeros (UK e Irlanda principalmente) y de la buena proyección que tenían (han demostrado con creces su potencial durante este tiempo) por aquel entonces estas herramientas.
Mis primeros proyectos fueron desarrollados en mambo, primera versión de lo que hoy conocemos como Joomla!. Poco a poco fui aumentando mis proyectos apoyándome en este, Joomla! al cual he aportado mi granito de arena con extensiones gratuitas que se pueden descargar en la página oficial del proyecto y tutoriales en el portal JoomlaSpanish. Después Wordpress se cruzó en mi camino y Prestashop se convertiría en otro de mis predilectos.
A día de hoy, imparto clases en varios centros de alto rendimiento y entidades como: Madrid Emprende, Pixelpro, RTVCM... y también he tenido la oportunidad de escribir artículos para revistas como PC Actual, Computer Hoy entre otras. Si quieres conocer más sobre mi o mi trabajo, puedes encontrarme en Google+ y Youtube ;-)

Amazing because I have been working with Magento 2 in the last two years, and really the instructor give us a kind of concepts that increase my knowloedge in this technology. In the admin I can see that he is using the version 2.3 and right now we are working in nowadays version, but the essential of the theme development is cobert in this course. Thak you

Solo un detalle, poner que el curso es intermedio, se necesitan varios conocimientos para entender y un setup andando. Y lo otro, si eres español, hazlo en español también, tendrás mucha audiencia hispana

I've been playing with Magento Development for quite some time but never learned the basics. This course teaches the basics of how Magento Theme Development should be done.

This course is absolutely awesome. I have learnt the foundation of magento 2 from this course and now I can control the whole magento website design and many more. I will suggest every magento learner to enroll this course. Thanks Again PixelPro

It's a quick and nice introduction into custom Magento 2 Themes. Just the LESS and Photoshop part could be kicked out to save nearly 30 min. Better add a little bit more about the {{xy_url}} and widgets.
By Daniel Reid Spencer on 8/25/2019
Maybe a bit more advance things would have a been a bit better, adding the css on video would have been nice aswell ( but you provide css so that is good) but everything else nice. Also when adding the classes to the cms would be nice to go in depth of "Why?", congratz.
By Homesh paul on 8/24/2019
That was good to begin with I have started with magento 2 learning and this tutorial is good for theme learning I personally suggest it has covered all the things in fast but still have covered alot of things . For teacher I must say you must add few lecture for HTML to Magento full theme development course. So all you can go with this course.
By Eric Fleming on 10/18/2018
The course has provided me with everything I was looking for and more. I have read articles, books and even took another course on a different web site on Magento 2 theme development; none of them have summarized the theme development process like this course. I am truly thankful to the instructor.
By StJohn Krog on 8/1/2018
Very intuitive and very well laid out. Would be great to have a document with each lecture to show links as I have had to find them myself. It would just be more surficiant but otherwise it is awesome! Well done :D Highly recommendable!!
