Customization

Most of your edits should be inside /public folder. You can create templates for different pages of your website inside /public/templates folder. All custom php code( functions, classes, etc ) should ideally go inside /public/inc folder. All css, javascript, images etc should go inside /public/assets folder and so on.

Features

Simple template strucutres

Create a file public/templates/service.php and that gets mapped to yourdomain.com/service/ automatically.

Create a file public/templates/gallery/photos/album1.php and that get mapped to yourdomain.com/gallery/photos/album1/.

Many utility functions

Many functions for sanitization, validation, etc, are available. Most of these have been copied from WordPress core, with minimal modifications as and when needed.

A working example contact form with jQueryForm, phpmailer etc.

TailWind CSS

It uses tailwindcss , mainly because I don't like writing CSS. You can use good old vanilla css or something else.

If however, you wish to continue using tailwind:

• The file public/assets/css/src/style.css is the source file the output of which is written into public/assets/css/style.css
• To compile the source and generate output, browse to the root folder of the project on terminal and run the following:

npx tailwindcss -i ./public/assets/css/src/style.css -o ./public/assets/css/style.css --minify
