Overview

What I built & why

Command-line interface for WordPress. Manage plugins, themes, users, options, and bulk operations without the admin UI.

Maintained by Automattic and a wide community of contributors; essential tool for WordPress operations.

Highlights

Key deliverables

  • Bulk operations
  • DB import + export
  • User + plugin management
  • Custom commands API
  • Scriptable everything

Process

Challenge & solution

The challenge

Mobile traffic was outpacing desktop two-to-one, yet the existing experience was effectively unusable below 768px.

The solution

Designed the new editor flow around the actual content patterns, with sane defaults and one-click publish targets.
