Description
Add:
“Looks like you’re trying to edit your theme! We recommend creating a [child theme](link)" instead.
This will let you make changes to your theme without accidentally breaking anything.” Except with better copy. Maybe also a “make child theme” one-click button that generates a child theme with a functions.php and style.css.

Moving the warning stuff over to #31779. Let's keep this for other ideas and enhancements around editing theme files for now.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Can we handle the warning thing in #41075 and keep this one for the help part only? I think there are some plugins that let you create child themes that we could look at.
