Now that your local environment is ready it's time to get it running.

init command

Change to the root directory of your existing project source.

This command installs all necessary packages using Composer and NPM, including WordPress and its initial config.

make init

This will also generate the .env file in the root-directory.

.env file

On first run in your project, an initial .env file will be created in the project root folder.

Use this file to do customise your project environment. It is required for all developers, so share it securely among your team members.

Security notice

Share the file securely among team members. Do not version the real .env file in git.

A clean example .env file .env.example can be found in Starter Kit, that can be versioned.
