Zac and Allison announced on Twitter that they're teaming up to make a course on WordPress theme creation.

Excellent news on plans for theme creation. Plugin development would be a great addition, too.

Hi folks! Yes, we have started on our How to Build a WordPress Theme project and should have it up on the roadmap in the next week or two.

Plugin development is definitely what we're hearing from everyone as what they want after theme development, so... ;)

Just wanted to add my vote for Wordpress theme videos as well as how to build plugins.

Glad to hear there are videos in the works. Looking forward to watching them.

I just want to add that I would love to see Treehouse develop some more advanced Wordpress videos. The basic stuff is really easy to find on the internet for free, so it would be great to have some intermediate/advanced videos. I think the Theme Building video that Zac and Allison are doing is a great start, and plugin development would be nice too. I'd also really like to see one on theme customization (using Chrome Developer tools with css and php).
