I prefer hooks, since they are more flexible: you can hook into them from your theme’s functions.php file, but also from plugins. I try to put as much logic in plugins, so that the themes contain mostly layout stuff. If you use an action hook, it is still possible to use get_template_part() in that hook … Read more
Indeed, wp_localize_script() is simple, it just adds quotes around the values and escapes the content, expecting all of them to be strings.

I think some of your questions are too wide. You still cannot break down each answer in hours. Some of the questions I ask: Are there widgets? Which? Which theme options are needed? Details? Colors, text fields, image uploads etc. Custom post types and taxonomies? Very, very detailed. How are the comments displayed? This one … Read more
You can also hook into the core update routine. (I’m looking for tutorial links, but my Google-fu is failing me this morning.) EDIT: See if this tutorial helps. It explains how to implement automatic upgrades for private/commercial (i.e. non-repository-hosted) Plugins.
If you know the menu’s slug, then things are easier, otherwise you can use this function to get the menu at a specified location. <?php function wpse45700_get_menu_by_location( $location ) { if( empty($location) ) return false; $locations = get_nav_menu_locations(); if( ! isset( $locations[$location] ) ) return false; $menu_obj = get_term( $locations[$location], ‘nav_menu’ ); return $menu_obj; } … Read more
