Streamline local WordPress development with devly

There are a number of ways to install WordPress for local development including containers, virtual machines, and WordPress' famous 5-minute install.

devly-wordpress is neither a containerization nor a virtual machine solution; it is a command line utility that installs WordPress locally - ready for use - in seconds.

With devly-wordpress, developers can leverage the power of their host machine and avoid the complexities of mounting files and folders into guest operating systems.
