A personal WordPress I use for my WordPress projects.

Laser WordPress made with BedRock

Traditional Wordpress is cool, but I prefer the modified BedRock version. It easy to use, can be deployed anywhere and used on any domain as well. It's just LASER. I included setup to host on Heroku at a cost of 0$ per month.

Feel free to use it, git clone or composer create project on this repository. I use this to build all my WordPress projects, so maintenance is assured.

Deployment Setup

1. The web server should support PHP and Composer. If Composer is missing, then manually download it and include it to this repository.
2. Incase your repository for the wordpress app is private. Create your SSH key on both server (which should support SSH and GIT), and in GitHub. Then git clone this repository the SSH way, and run composer install.
3. Point your public directory to the web folder, using .htaccess, or if your server supports Procfile edit it to how your server may require it to be.
