Overview

Bedrock is a WordPress boilerplate for developers that want to manage their projects with Git and Composer. Much of the philosophy behind Bedrock is inspired by the Twelve-Factor App methodology, including the WordPress specific version.

• Better folder structure
• Dependency management with Composer
  • roots/wordpress package for WordPress core
  • WP Packages repository for WordPress plugins and themes
• Easy WordPress configuration with environment specific files
• Environment variables with Dotenv
• Autoloader for mu-plugins (use regular plugins as mu-plugins)

Getting Started
