## Description

**NOTE:** The current version of the TIVWP-DM plugin was released mostly for educational
purposes.

I appreciate your comments and ideas. Please see the [TIVWP-DM Development Manager’s GitHub repo](https://github.com/TIVWP/tivwp-dm)
for **additional files showing how to setup Travis-CI/PHPUnit for automatic testing**.

**TIVWP-DM Development Manager** is a plugin for WordPress developers. Its main 
features are:

 * Prompts to automatically install and activate popular development plugins from
   the WordPress repository
 * Allows to activate / deactivate those plugins in bulk – with a single admin menu
   click or automatically, according to the wp-config settings
