Bedrock is a WordPress boilerplate that manages WordPress core, plugins, and themes as Composer dependencies with Git-friendly workflows. It provides an improved folder structure, environment-specific configuration via Dotenv, and enhanced security defaults.

Use cases

• set up a WordPress project managed with Composer and Git
• install WordPress plugins as Composer dependencies
• use environment variables for WordPress configuration
• get a cleaner WordPress folder structure for team development
• manage WordPress core updates through Composer
• improve WordPress security with environment-specific config

When to choose

• you are a developer building a WordPress site in a team with version control
• you want dependency management for WordPress core, plugins, and themes
• you want a modern, structured WordPress project layout with .env configuration

When to avoid

• you want a simple one-click WordPress install for a non-developer
• your site depends on plugins that hard-code wp-content paths or assume default directory structure
• you prefer the standard WordPress admin-driven plugin installation workflow
