The Wordpress Starter Kit was developed to be used at wordpress plugins development. It contains all basic classes to better organize code and aggregate all common operations.

The main goal is develop a boilerplate to **Piggly Lab**. But, it can be used to any other projects across web. The documentation is self-explanatory at code.
