	// these are required

	// if the .env.local.php is present the environment will be set to 'local'

	// part of the application
	'APP_ENV'     => 'local',

	'APP_THEME'   => 'base',

	'DB_NAME'     => 'weloquent',

	'my-private-key' => 'foo',

);

3. Install Wordpress

1. Access your home url and install Wordpress.
2. Login on admin panel and set up the theme, menus and permalinks.

You are done!

Configuration

Go to src/bootstrap/shared.php and set your unique keys and salts.

Set up your constants and variables on src/bootstrap/{environment}.php.

Everything is good to go, but spend some time on files inside of src/themes/your-theme/app/config/*.

The folders inside src/storage/* should be writable.

Optimizations

To access the admin session with a most appealing url. Add these instructions to your .htaccess. Now you can go to http://yoursite.com/cms

# BEGIN w.eloquent
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RedirectMatch 301 (.*)/cms/$ $1/cms/wp-admin
</IfModule>
# END w.eloquent

To combine classes and pre-render views run: php wel optimize --force.

To get a deeper understanding about w.eloquent see the Page life cycle on wiki.
