## Description

This is a fully-functional sample skeleton plugin for plugin developers.

It serves as a startup code providing reference and working codebase for:

 * defining custom post types and taxonomies
 * creating admin pages
 * sample code of the Settings API implementation for admin pages
 * registration of activate/deactivate hooks
 * adding metaboxes on pages
 * creating sample shortcode
 * creating sample widget
 * creating AJAX requests storing sample data in the database
 * creating AJAX requests for fetching remote data with the HTTP API
 * adding frontend styles/scripts the right way
 * adding admin styles/scripts the right way
 * defining common constants for further use

and more. **Use it freely as your plugin startup snippet**.

Take the code as is for test and learning or use it when creating plugins for a 
solid base. To be extended with
 widget and shortcode samples.

## Installation

Upload the DX Plugin Base plugin to your blog and activate it. It would work as 
is.

Extend or comment whenever appropriate based on your assignment.

## FAQ

  Is it compatible with latest WordPress?

Yes, it is, as well as with the latest PHP.

I’ve removed the ‘pass-by-reference’ call for all array( $this, … ) entries as it’s
deprecated since 5.3.0. If you happen to use 5.2.4, you can replace all $this in
arrays with &$this or better update PHP version.
