Storefront Child Theme

It’s important to use Child themes when developing WordPress sites, even more so if you are running a WooCommerce Store.

What is a child theme? A child theme allows you to make changes that work independently to the parent theme, in this case Storefront is your parent theme.

Why is it necessary? If you make changes directly into the Storefront theme then you will lose those changes when it’s time to update the theme. Updating a WordPress theme will override all existing theme files.

Child themes inherit all their parent information, like styles. That means that you can easily override certain CSS styles with your own.
