- Bulk Plugin & Theme Installation: Choose from a curated list of popular developer themes and plugins to install automatically.
- Recipe Export/Import: Save your setup as a JSON recipe and reuse it across projects for consistent workflows.
- Developer-Friendly: Built with a robust batch handler that avoids timeouts and shows real-time progress.
This plugin is lightweight, modern, and designed for professionals who value automation and consistency.
