Porting WordPress Plugins to EmDash
This skill maps WordPress concepts to their EmDash equivalents for plugin porting. For general plugin authoring details (plugin structure, definePlugin(), hooks, storage, admin UI, etc.), use the creating-plugins skill.
Migration Approach
- Understand the plugin — What does it do, not how
- Identify concepts — Content types, admin pages, hooks, shortcodes
- Map to EmDash — Use the tables below
- Implement in TypeScript — Clean room, not line-by-line port. Use the creating-plugins skill for implementation details.
- Test behaviour — Same result, different implementation
