Requirements
WP Bones requires PHP >= 7.4+, git, Composer, npm or yarn, and optionally WP-CLI. It supports macOS, Windows 10, and Linux. The php bones
command should be run from a WordPress environment like Vagrant or Valet. Ensure git and Composer are installed in the WordPress environment, while npm is needed on the host machine for Gulp. Visit related websites for Composer, npm, Laravel, or Gulp if you’re unfamiliar with them.
Developer Tools
WP Bones has a few system requirements. However, if you are a newbie in Composer, npm, Laravel or Gulp, please, visit the related website before continuing.
The WP-CLI is not mandatory but it is very useful. Anyway, if you want to run the scripts make-pot
and make-json
used to translate the plugin, you need to install it.
Operating System Requirements
WP Bones supports macOS, Windows 10, and Linux distributions.
WordPress environment

.
