A set of config files and instructions to bootstrap an environment suitable for developing Wordpress sites.

Included goodies included include:

• twisty/wp-vagrant-apache: a Vagrant box ready to serve Wordpress using apache.
• wp-cli: wrangle Wordpress from the command line.

You’ll need Composer.

git clone https://github.com/twisty/wp-skeleton.git  
git submodule update --init  
composer update

This may require a bit of setup, read the separate install file for details.

Run an Ubuntu LAMP stack:

cd wp-vagrant-apache  
vagrant up

Go to http://localhost:8888/ to see the files served from ./htdocs.

Start Vagrant, then run ./setup-wordpress.sh. This will:

• Download the latest Wordpress.
• Add a default “author” user.
• Scaffold some dummy posts.
• Install some useful development plugins.

Wordpress will be installed to ./htdocs/wordpress/ and viewable at http://localhost:8888/wordpress/.

wp-cli is available via Composer at ./vendor/bin/wp.
