Installation

Point Kizlo at your own WordPress, or let it run one locally in Docker.

Kizlo talks to WordPress. You can point it at your own, or let Kizlo run one locally in Docker for development. Pick the one that fits — both end at the same quickstart.

Run WordPress locally

For local development you don't need your own WordPress or a plugin download. During the quickstart, npx kizlo dev boots a self-contained WordPress in Docker with the Kizlo plugin already bundled, provisions an Application Password, and writes it to .env — so the local stack is ready to call with nothing to set up by hand.

The one thing to have ready now is Docker Desktop, installed and running.

That's the whole setup for local dev. Head to the quickstartkizlo dev handles the plugin and credentials for you.

With WordPress ready either way, head to the Next.js quickstart to add Kizlo to your app and make your first call.
