WordPress module designed for developers that want to add routes to the [WordPress Rest API](https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/) in a few moments.

> 💡 To simplify the integration of this library, we recommend using WordPress with one of the following tools: [Bedrock](https://roots.io/bedrock/), [Themosis](https://framework.themosis.com/) or [Wordplate](https://github.com/wordplate/wordplate#readme).
