Software and Tooling

Local

Local  is how we run WordPress locally on our machines, and connects with Flywheel/WP Engine — allowing us to push and pull entire websites to Staging and Production environments (database and all files).

VSCode

VSCode  is the industry-default code editor for web development, and you should use it when working on ED. projects.

The starter theme includes a .vscode/extensions.json file with a list of recommended plugins — you should ensure these are installed.
