🚀 First release candidate of WordPress Foundation

This is the first public version of dbout/wp-foundation, a lightweight application foundation for WordPress: service container, attribute-based routing, WP-CLI commands, Twig views, validation, cache and security hardening,
built on Symfony and Illuminate components.

Important

This is a release candidate: the API is considered stable for 1.0.0, only bug fixes will be made until the final version. Please test it on a real project and report any issue.
