What should I learn to make my wordpress theme?

As I said earlier you should start with CSS and HTML because all websites needs to look good especially in 2019 when static websites are considered old. You must to learn what is a grid how to keep all websites elements in a container and the most important thing if you are begginer you have to understand what box-sizing do. After you learnt a little about front end you can go forward and start learning about PHP, how server works and then you should read things about wordpress like how it works, where and why you should plugins. And the most important lessons I have learned in all this time of programming is you should use few plugins. Because if you will use a lot of plugins in your theme let's say 20, you will create 20 more potential security issues in your website. Why? Most of the plugins are open source so all people can download them and see the code, if I know what code you have in your website maybe I can use a piece of code from that plugin to break your website.

To start doing wordpress themes start by doing a frontend for a website from header to footer, then make it responsive, all websites must to be responsive. After you finish your first frontend make another one and another one, then you can start learning and test php and see what it do.
