Not really, but it isn’t a terrible idea. Basically, a hybrid theme is a very loose definition for pretty much anything that’s a cross between a block theme and a classic theme. There is also now a fourth thing that some genius decided to call a Universal Theme since we weren’t already confused enough.
The short answer to your question is pretty simple though. To start using block templates (this making your theme a block theme), all you need is a folder in your theme called ‘templates’ with a blank HTML file that overrides one of your classic PHP templates. WordPress will see the HTML file and turn on the site editor.
Hey Adam, is the theme.json also a thing that can be added or is it already included with the classic themes?
Theme.json isn’t a required file for either Classic Themes or Block Themes, so it all depends on what the theme developer included or whether you decide to include it in your child theme.
