What it is

Get command-line control for WordPress sites on Nginx.

Real use case example

"A founder wants to deploy a new WordPress site for their project. They write a single command with EasyEngine, and it sets up the site with Nginx, PHP, MySQL, and Let's Encrypt. They test it and it works as expected."

Heads up: Ensure you have a compatible version of PHP and Nginx installed before running EasyEngine, as it requires specific runtime environments to function correctly.
