 * When logging into my blog (wordpress.com) site I don’t see a way to create a 
   theme style guide with the Appearance, editor settings. Is this instruction for
   wordpress.org sites only?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdeveloping-first-wordpress-theme-tutorial%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@valmedia2023](https://wordpress.org/support/users/valmedia2023/)
    Most welcome
   to WordPress forums. So — everything here at WordPress**.org** is about the WordPress
   you could install on your own server (well, in most cases you’d use a one-click
   install from your webhost, though…)
 * WordPress**.com** is a commercial service that is built on top of the “usual”
   WordPress. Some things are added, and some things are removed. That’s all on 
   their (Automattic) discretion, and we don’t really control any of that here.
 * (At the same time, Automattic is one of the really large companies that contribute
   back to WordPress, so I guess it’s still quite ok. 🙂 )
 * So, short answer: If you’re wondering anything about how things work at .com,
   then you need to ask in their support.
