Get working dir from wordpress.com site - wordpress

I'm not a WordPress expert here but I got a account and a preminum version with a template but I want to download the entire directory so I can modify php files, styles etc.
How do I do this and also how do I upload it to the wordpress site itself since it's live.
Thanks

Unfortunately, you cannot do that on wordpress.com site.
But you can edit some files from within your wordpress admin panel editor.

Where Can I Download The Wordpress Penscratch Theme Files?

My website is www.rosstheexplorer.com.
I am fairly sure I have managed to corrupt / break my Penscratch Wordpress Theme.
When I try and load my website I am greeted with a white page.
Where can I redownload the Wordpress Penscratch theme files?
I have access to my file manager. I was hoping to be able to download the Penscratch php files and then upload them to my file manager.
A simeple google search for you theme suggests this url
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/themes/penscratch/
You can click on download button and get the files then backup old files and replace the whole folder with downloaded version of theme. You may need to unzip it before uploading via ftp or if using filemanager make sure you place files in correct folder and unzip them properly.
Thank you for peoples suggestions.
I used that site and it was what I needed. Although in the end I did not have to reupload the theme. I was able to correct my existing theme.

Add second website to wordpress

So I'm new to wordpress, and I'm managing a company's wordpress site while building another website for this company. They have paid for many plugins and themes in their wordpress account and I would like to use them for the new website. So my question is that what do I do in order to add this website from my local host to their wordpress account.
Should I just download their wordpress file into my laptop and create a new folder in that file? If so, then what?
First things first: If you're are building another website using platform other than wordpress, then you cannot use plugins and themes.
But if you're, just download the wordpress plugins and themes from old site. And then, place those to your respective themes and plugins folder. If you are working on existing site, then you may need the existing sql file to test in the identical environments along with the data. There are many plugins which can do that for you.
And most importantly, If you are going to build a website in wordpress, you should check out the wordpress basics first.

Hosting an example WordPress site

I applied for a role and part of the application process requires me to build a WordPress site and make it live on a existing domain I own. This will assist the hiring company (example "WebCompany") to view and assess.
I have created the WordPress site locally and want to upload to my domain (e.g. www.mydomain.com.au) with a url extension like www.mydomain.com.au/webcompany.
Would it be as simple as just FTP the WordPress site to the root directory? Or do I need to set things up differently for it to work?
I recommend to install wordpress on your url with the same version, and use this plugin, I use it and helps even if you have info in your database, and your themes, all the stuff,
and then you have to active the plugins on the web, choose permalinks options.
WORDPRESS ALL-IN ONE PLUGIN
for the extension / what you mean really? you want wordpress on a /namefolder
because you can install wordpress in a folder and there's your extension, but if you have already wordpress installed on the public_html/ you can use multisite wordpress options.
Here is the info and I did it with this:
MultiSite Wordpress

Is it possible to install Wordpress inside of Wordpress

I have a question. I have a Wordpress site that I built for a client and they were acquired and the company that bought them is shuttering the website and folding it into their existing site.
My website is based on Wordpress. I want to clone the client site and run a copy to show to potential new clients. If I have http://example.com and I wanted to put a Wordpress install inside of it at: http://example.com/demo/site or http://example.com/client_site. Is this possible? Are there any red flags or warnings that I should be worried about?
Thanks!
Yes you can do that, I have done this in serverwarrior It is an wordpress site and wooshop this is another wordpress site inside that.
Just extract the WordPress zip file inside the directory you are having your site wordpress and rename the new wordpress folder to any name you want.

How to export a whole wordpress site including all the html css files?

I was wondering how I can export the whole template on WordPress. There is export under tools, but it only exports the database. I have edited the WordPress template and I would want to use this template for another website. How would I be able to do this?
I think its not enough to copy the theme folder to another WordPress because some themes needs some extra plugins to work Ex. theme builders etc.. and there may be database related configs
to clone a word press website
export the database using a tool like phpMyadmin
import database
copy whole WordPress website including all files (you can use filezilla ftp client for this or use hosting panel. there should be a file manager compress the all files and take)
find the wp-config file in the root and change the new db, usernames, password ..
you may need to login to the wordpress dashboard -- > settings --> general and change the wordpress base URL
it should work
With an FTP program you can download all the template files from /wp-content/themes/[YOUR TEMPLATE NAME]
There are different plugin for exporting Wordpress pages to HTML/CSS files.
One of them is "Export WP Page to Static HTML/CSS" from ReCorp
