  • Take a look at the default template for Joomla 2.5 to see how it works. You will probably be best off editing this one. – Lodder Nov 14 '13 at 10:39

Joomla templates are based around a PHP index file and allow you to create overrides for each of the content types output by Joomla.

The Joomla Doc's site has a section on templates that you should start with.

Make sure you read up on Template Overrides and Module Chrome as well. Reviewing the templates installed by Joomla is also a good place to start. You can get a good feel for how they are structured and what they're capable of by looking at the default templates.

By the way if your client is only just building their website now they should be starting with Joomla 3.2 not 2.5, it has a lot of great features and is very Bootstrap friendly. In fact the tag line for the 3 series is "Mobile Ready"

Template systems like JooStrap also have Bootstrap 3 integrated already.

That's tedious works; the opposite is easier. Your design can be turned to Joomla template. Just add template codes to your HTML and your design can be used as Joomla template.

For example, you need to add the following code before <html>:

<?php defined( '_JEXEC' ) or die( 'Restricted access' );?>

For a basic guide, visit: https://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_basic_Joomla!_template

There are also codes to display your website contents and modules.
