Setting up a project

To start a new project, run:

$ composer create-project grrr-amsterdam/wordpress-scaffold <project-name>

This will create a new project in the chosen directory. After the project is created by Composer, an interactive shell will be initiated. This interactive setup will prompt you with some questions, and will concurrently run the some tasks:

Tasks
