About LW Plugins
Philosophy
LW Plugins exists because most WordPress plugins try to do too much. They ship with dozens of features you never asked for, upsell banners on every admin page, and telemetry that phones home without telling you.
We take a different approach:
- One plugin, one job - each plugin has a clear, focused purpose
- No feature creep - we say no to features that don’t belong
- No upsells - every plugin is fully functional, no premium tier required
- No tracking - zero analytics, zero telemetry, zero external requests without explicit consent
- No bloat - minimal footprint, maximum efficiency
Modern Code
Every LW plugin is built with modern PHP practices:
- PHP 8.2+ with
declare(strict_types=1) - PSR-4 autoloading via Composer
- WordPress Coding Standards (WPCS)
- Clean, atomic architecture (single responsibility per class)
- Type declarations on all parameters and return values
Open Source
All plugins are released under the GPL-2.0-or-later license and hosted on GitHub:
