A document for the best practice in setting up a development environment for testing #10

Open jonathanbossenger opened 7 years ago

jonathanbossenger commented 7 years ago

I'm happy to start this document, but I need some guidance.

The idea being a 'how to setup wp-cil on a development environment for a first timer'

Considering things like LAMP. MAMP, WAMP, Vagrant (and possibly Docker) in terms of what people use for development environments.

@jonathanbossenger I think this might make most sense as a couple sentences in the Setting up section of our pull requests documentation. Would you like to contribute a change to that effect?

@danielbachhuber certainly. As previously mentioned though, I've not yet (probably due to lack of sufficient time) successfully setup a development environment. I guess what I'm asking is that would you or @schlessera mind if I ping you in Slack should I get stuck?

Not at all. #cli is a good channel for any questions because you'll be able to reach whoever is around at the time.

For WP-CLI specifically or WordPress generally? If the former, you should be able to reuse your existing WordPress development environment for WP-CLI development.
