A Lightweight WordPress Project Skeleton
========================================

[](#a-lightweight-wordpress-project-skeleton)

This is a lightweight WordPress skeleton for your next WordPress web application. It aims to provide a clean and organized structure for managing WordPress projects, making it easier to develop, deploy, and maintain WordPress websites.

> Uses [wp-env-app](https://github.com/devuri/wp-env-app/)

### Environment Variables Setup

[](#environment-variables-setup)

To get started, create a `.env` file in the root directory of your project. In this file, define the environment variables you wish to use as configuration constants, update the database credentials and other settings as needed.

```
WP_HOME='https://example.com'
WP_SITEURL="${WP_HOME}"

WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE='production'
DEVELOPER_ADMIN='0'

MEMORY_LIMIT='256M'
MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT='256M'

DB_NAME=wp_dbName
DB_USER=root
DB_PASSWORD=
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PREFIX=wp_
```
