Trellis is an Ansible-powered LEMP stack for WordPress that provisions production-ready servers (Nginx, PHP 8.3, MariaDB, SSL) and provides isolated local development environments via Lima VMs. It includes zero-downtime deploys for Bedrock-based WordPress sites and is managed through the trellis-cli command-line tool.

Use cases

  • provision a production WordPress server with nginx and php 8.3
  • set up a local wordpress development environment in a vm
  • deploy wordpress sites with zero downtime
  • automate ssl certificates with lets encrypt for wordpress
  • self-host wordpress on digitalocean or hetzner
  • manage wordpress server configuration with ansible
  • create a new bedrock wordpress project from the command line

When to choose

  • you want full control over your WordPress hosting instead of managed hosting
  • you use Bedrock and want development/production parity
  • you need repeatable, automated server provisioning and deploys
  • you prefer Ansible-based infrastructure as code for WordPress

When to avoid

  • you don't use Bedrock for your WordPress projects
  • you want a simple shared host or managed WordPress hosting
  • you're not comfortable with Ansible, YAML configuration, and the command line
  • you need a non-WordPress LEMP stack
