I am creating custom theme in magento 2. Is it necessary to assign parent theme to my new custom theme.
<parent>Vendor/theme</parent>
I want to develop whole things from the scratch, that's why I don't want to include parent theme.

1no need if you develop everything on your own, if not you suppose get basic thins like parent styles and layout from parent theme. That's why we include parent theme– Prathap GunasekaranCommented Mar 15, 2019 at 12:15

No it is not necessary, if you do not set a parent theme you can create all your CSS from scratch. See this post for an example - Theming for Magento 2 - Starting from scratch

What if I want to create all the thing (property, layout, template files, and styles) in my new theme. Do I need to use parent theme now? Commented Mar 15, 2019 at 12:17

1No you don't need but that doesn't make sense, you can customise anything by inheriting parent theme instead of creating all the page layouts from the scratch @MuhammadBilalkhan Commented Mar 15, 2019 at 12:19
