As the developer of wordup, i would like show how easy and fast you can setup a new WordPress project with wordup
What is wordup?
Wordup is an open-source development toolkit for setting up and managing your local WordPress Theme/Plugin development, so that you can totally focus on coding.
The wordup-cli is a command line interface written in nodejs and uses docker-compose.
It is available as a package on npm
Requirementes
You need to have nodejs and docker installed on your system.
Init a new project
We are using wordup-cli as a local devDependency.
To do that we will run the wordup-cli commands via npx.
npx belongs to npm and executes a command even if it's not installed on your system.
To start your first project run (in a folder of your choice):
npx wordup-cli init
You will be guided to some questions. After that wordup will install automatically all containers and components.
Note: If you use wordup-cli as a devDependency make sure to always use npx before every wordup command.
You can find the whole wordup documentation on GitHub
Start developing
Take a look at the newly created project folder in your editor. All files located in the /src folder belong to the WordPress plugin/theme you want to develop.
Files outside of this folder belong to your project in general.
In the package.json file you can see the wordup project settings.
Export your project
After some coding you want to distribute your WordPress plugin/theme.
You can do that by running in your project folder:
npx wordup export
Wordup will export your /src folder to a zip file, based on .distignore and your wordup settings.
You have also the posibilty to export your whole project. Export docs
Happy Coding!!

I love it when I dive off into learning new development technologies and someone just gets done creating awesome stuff like this. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for this! Ive been planning to switch from local by flywheel to docker since they dont mix well. :)
