Effortless CSS and JS Compilation for WordPress
WP Compiler is a WordPress plugin designed to streamline the process of compiling CSS and JavaScript for themes and plugins. With support for SCSS and LESS precompilers, users can easily specify the source files and destination for compiled results. This tool operates in Dev Mode, allowing real-time monitoring of source folders, automatically recompiling files upon any changes. This feature is especially beneficial for developers looking to maintain an efficient workflow without the need for complex build tools or installations.
When ready to deploy a site, users can disable Dev Mode to ensure optimal performance. In this mode, WP Compiler compiles and minimizes styles and JavaScript, removing comments and source maps to enhance load times. Additionally, it features a simple compile button in the admin toolbar for on-the-fly adjustments. Relying on scssphp, lessphp, and minify, WP Compiler provides a robust solution for managing front-end assets in WordPress.
