Acorn

**Use Laravel within WordPress projects**

- 🗒️ Use Blade templates for WordPress views, blocks, and more
- ⚡️ Access Laravel's powerful features within WordPress
- 💻 Use Laravel packages in your WordPress projects
- 🔥 Write better WordPress code with Laravel's patterns and utilities

Acorn brings Laravel's ecosystem to WordPress. Build your next WordPress project with the tools and packages you already know and love.

Acorn gives you access to most Laravel components out of the box, including routing, caching, events, validation, and more. There's also a growing ecosystem of [community packages](https://roots.io/acorn/docs/available-packages/) built specifically for Acorn that add features like WooCommerce support and ACF integration.
