Cookiecutter WordPress Plugin

A standardized, organized, object-oriented foundation for building high-quality WordPress Plugins.

Contents

The WordPress Plugin Boilerplate includes the following files:

• .gitignore. Used to exclude certain files from the repository.
• README.md. The file that you’re currently reading.
• A plugin-name directory that contains the source code - a fully executable WordPress plugin.
• docker-compose as container engine

Features

• The Boilerplate is based on the Plugin API, Coding Standards, and Documentation Standards.
• All classes, functions, and variables are documented so that you know what you need to change.
• The Boilerplate uses a strict file organization scheme that corresponds both to the WordPress Plugin Repository structure, and that makes it easy to organize the files that compose the plugin.
• The project includes a .pot file as a starting point for internationalization.
