Bedrock
Bedrock is a modern WordPress stack that helps developers manage dependencies, configuration, and deployment workflows more efficiently. It uses Composer for dependency management, separates web root from application code, and includes environment-based configuration. This tool is part of the Roots ecosystem, designed to bring modern development practices to WordPress projects.
Developers should use Bedrock when building WordPress sites that require better dependency management, version control for themes/plugins, and streamlined deployment processes. It's particularly useful for team-based projects, agencies managing multiple client sites, or any WordPress development where modern PHP practices and Composer integration are needed to improve maintainability and scalability.
