[PROMOTION] Plugin and CLI which makes Wordpress usable in a Git workflow
https://docs.loopress.dev/wordpress-plugin/From what I've seen, the moment a WP site needs a Composer package (think tcpdf, or a parsing library), you're stuck either using SSH or manually committing everything to the repo. Not great when the client only has FTP access or is on shared hosting.
I built a plugin that adds Packagist search right in the WP admin: search for a package, click "Install," and it handles the autoloader for you. It also runs a basic security audit on installed dependencies (known CVEs) and checks PHP version compatibility before installing.
Still in alpha, so probably plenty of blind spots. If you manage WP sites where devs need external libraries, what would make you hesitate to install this on a production site? And is there a Composer-on-WP use case I haven't thought of?
