Hi @pankaj_asp, have you seen our frontend developer's guide? http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/frontend-dev-guide/bk-frontend-dev-guide.html

Hi @sherrie

Thanks for reply.

Yes I followed the doc but still not able to get templates(header/footer) to call from my theme folder.

I need to do some html customization in header/footer code blocks.

Hi.

The best way i found (although not an official one) was to copy the "Luma" theme from /Vendor/Magento/theme-frontend-luma folder to /app/design/frontend/<vendor>/<theme>.

Then I just adapted registration.php and composer.json to point to my custom theme.

This way you have a working custom theme that you can customize freely.
