Just signed up to Wordpress today and am already having several issues. I'm a front end developer, so I don't know a lot of php (I know some very basics). I tired to figure out how to add my own themes to Wordpress (basically I heard that you just code website normally with html, css and javascript like you usually would and then upload files to Wordpress). However I can't find this option anywhere, only changes I'm able to make are in GUI editor of current themes available in Wordpress. Can anyone explain how it works?

PGWP is a desktop app that let's you transform any HTML website into a standard PHP-based WordPress theme. With PGWP we keep full control over our theme. Every piece of HTML code, every CSS rule and every line of PHP code are under our control. And we accomplish that without actually doing any PHP coding.
Fortunately, creating a custom theme for WordPress is a relatively straightforward process. Surprisingly, it doesn't require a ton of technical knowledge or experience with web development. Plus, building your own theme can be well worth the effort since you can get your site looking exactly the way you want it.
Another option is to use the Theme Switcha plugin. It allows you to preview your new theme without activating it.
The general answer is no. Wordpress is built with PHP and content is served to the user using PHP.
Now, if you are just starting out and don't want to learn PHP here's my suggestion.
Find a theme as close to what you want your site to look like. Then you can just modify the HTML, CSS and JS that supports the theme. If you're not making drastic changes it should be fairly simple.
