Feature Fest is your 6-day crash course to train your team (or future team) and finally glow up your site.
An FTP client (FTP = File Transfer Protocol) allows you to connect your local computer to a remote computer (usually the server your host owns) and transfer files between them. This is the best way to edit your theme files, and if you’ve crashed your site (messed up while making a change to functions.php, anyone?) it’s necessary to get your site to load properly again.
MAC Preferred
When it comes to FTP, my favorite client is Mac-only: Transmit. It’ll only set you back $34, and I promise it’s worth it!
Free alternatives include WinSCP (Windows) and Cyberduck (Mac).
If you want something cross-platform, FileZilla has been a long-time solution, but it’s not a favorite of mine.
