This is a starter kit for developers building JavaScript-centric extensions for a widely-used content management system. It is designed for those who want to understand the foundational tooling and workflows, rather than just using a black-box boilerplate. The project provides a step-by-step tutorial embedded in its commit history, guiding you from a basic plugin setup to a production-ready package.

Educational Commit History: Each commit in the repository corresponds to a tutorial chapter, clearly demonstrating the progression from a simple environment setup to a functional block.
Integrated Local Environment: Includes a Docker Compose configuration to quickly launch a consistent local development and testing environment.
Modern JavaScript Tooling: Pre-configured with Parcel as a bundler and the appropriate Babel preset to support JSX and ESNext features compatible with the platform's ecosystem.
Production Build Scripts: Defines npm scripts for development (npm start) and production builds (npm run build), handling bundling and minification.
Packaging Utility: Includes a script to generate a distributable ZIP file containing only the necessary PHP and built JavaScript assets for deployment.
