WordPress powers its frontend with a concept called themes, consisting of a set of predefined template files to match the structure of default website layouts. In contrast to web applications, a WordPress theme works in a unique way. In Chapter 1, WordPress as a Web Application Framework, we had a brief introduction to the role of a WordPress theme and its most common layout. Preparing a theme for web applications can be one of the more complicated tasks, not discussed widely in the WordPress development community. Usually, web applications are associated with unique templates, which are entirely different from the default page-based nature of websites.
