WordPress Playground Blueprints

Overview

A Blueprint is a JSON file that declaratively configures a WordPress Playground instance — installing plugins/themes, setting options, running PHP/SQL, manipulating files, and more.

Core principle: Blueprints are trusted JSON-only declarations. No arbitrary JavaScript. They work on web, Node.js, and CLI.
