WordPress developers have their own workflows, and they sometimes differ from the usual ones in other CMS or frameworks. However, Bedrock allows you to manage WordPress and related plugins as any other PHP dependency via composer. It also creates a better project structure that puts WordPress in its own subdirectory. These nice features make Bedrock a great alternative to consider when developing WordPress sites, since you can follow a typical PHP development workflow: Update dependencies locally, commit your composer.lock, and deploy your application to your testing/staging environment (or to production, eventually).

If you also take advantage of Moss‘s zero-downtime deployments, your WordPress development workflow becomes a breeze. In this article we’ll see how to create and deploy your Bedrock site with Moss. If you don’t have an account yet, sign up at our Free Plan which includes unlimited sites and servers.

Last week we supported GitLab as a first-class citizen in Moss. If you host your application code in GitLab.com repositories, you can now enjoy all Moss features that previously were only available for GitHub and Bitbucket. As in the latter cases, you just have to authorize Moss to access your GitLab account and it’ll be able to deploy your GitLab-hosted repos.

In this way you can trigger automatic deployments after pushing your code, or deploy manually with just one click. In either case, your websites will benefit from a zero-downtime process. Want to know the details? Please keep reading 😀
