This project is based on the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate project.
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-namesubdirectory that contains the source code - a fully executable WordPress plugin. - A
mkpluginshell script that will help you create your first plugin based on Nelio's Plugin Boilerplate.
You can start a new plugin by simply downloading the project (or cloning it)
and running the mkplugin script. Simply follow the steps and you'll have a
new plugin folder ready.
