WordPress Plugin
The Loopress WordPress Plugin adds a dedicated admin page to your WordPress installation that lets you manage PHP packages through Composer, without needing SSH or command-line access to your server.
What it does
Section titled “What it does”- Dependency management: search, install and remove Composer packages from Packagist
How it works
Section titled “How it works”The plugin registers a Loopress entry in the WordPress admin sidebar. It stores your project’s Composer dependencies in wp-content/lps/, separate from the plugin itself, so they survive plugin updates.
A REST API under lps/v1 powers the React admin UI. All endpoints require the manage_options capability (administrator role).
