app/code/vendor/module/registration.php

app/code/vendor/module/etc/

app/code/vendor/module/etc/module.xml

app/code/vendor/module/Controller/

app/code/vendor/module/Controller/Index/Index.php

app/code/vendor/module/Block/

app/code/vendor/module/Block/Display.php

app/code/vendor/module/view/

app/code/vendor/module/view/frontend/layout/ module_index_index.xml

app/code/vendor/module/view/frontend/templates/display.phtml

2. Default theme in magento2 is “Luma Theme”. You can easily override and customize the “Luma theme” same as your magento1 theme. Follow below steps
3. Copy all the folders inside the vendor/magento/ theme-frontend-luma.
