Development

All development work is done on this website. This plugin is not published to the official WordPress plugin repository, as I don't have time to support it on their forums.

Note about support:

This plugin is distributed AS IS.

I do not support it in any way. If you have issues, you have to solve them on your own.

I won't add any features, however you can simply fork this repo and start developing anything you need.

Additional information

All my domains (flowzen.de and gitlab.flowzen.de) could have minor errors, since I am developing in my spare time. However, it is usually stable.

Note about versioning: Versions are cut in Major.Minor.Patch schema. Patch is incremental by every build. If there is a breaking change, it should be noted in the readme.
