in any recipe except yeast breads you can substitute up to 100% of regular flour with whole wheat
for yeast bread i would keep at least 25% regular flour for gluten content (needed to hold the gases yeast produce) or you will have a very dense bread

commercial 100% whole wheat bread has stabilizers like xanthan gum or acacia gum to hold the gases

another note whole wheat is more hydroscopic than reg flour so you may have to play with the moisture content

books to look into:
