EffectIO FunnelKit Checkout 3.13.3

Description:

WFACPKirki is a toolkit for theme developers who work with the WordPress Customizer. Its stated purpose is to let developers create rich experiences in the Customizer while following best coding practices. Rather than assembling every part of a settings interface by hand, a developer can build on the controls and helpers the toolkit provides. That combination of ready-made controls and accepted coding practices is what the project presents as its core benefit.

The toolkit ships with more than 30 custom control types. The range runs from simple sliders up to complex typography controls, and the typography controls include Google Fonts integration. Alongside the controls, WFACPKirki takes care of automatic CSS generation, so the styles tied to a setting are produced for the developer. Scripts for postMessage are generated automatically as well, which removes the need to write that code by hand. Tooltips and a number of further extras are also included. Taken together, these features are described as making theme development a lot faster for developers and more meaningful for users.

The audience is developers, not end users, and the authors suggest some preparation before starting. They advise becoming familiar with the Customizer API before writing a theme that uses WFACPKirki. To help with that, they point to the handbook for the WordPress Customizer on the developer.wordpress.org website and describe it as an excellent resource. Working through that handbook first gives a developer the background needed to put the toolkit's controls and helpers to use.

Detailed documentation on how to use WFACPKirki can be found at aristath.github.io/wfacpkirki. Development of the project and its issue tracking both happen on GitHub, so developers can follow the code there and report problems they encounter. Between the documentation site, the Customizer handbook on developer.wordpress.org, and the public GitHub repository, a developer has the reference material needed to learn the toolkit and to raise questions or bugs while working with it.
