Site Builder

What it does for you

Run new-site.sh: it asks (native Windows dialogs under Git Bash, terminal dialogs elsewhere) for the store name, what it sells, a palette, the features, and demo size, then zips a complete store. Extract the zip anywhere, run start.sh, answer port / admin / URL, and it boots the containers, installs WordPress and WooCommerce, activates everything, and seeds the demo.

Features

• Wizard questionsName, tagline, address, phone, vertical, palette (dark or light), features, product count.
• ScriptableFSB_* environment variables answer every question for unattended builds; ST_* for start.sh.
• Self-contained zipdocker-compose.yml with a bind mount per bundled plugin, the theme, the seed, README-SETUP.md.
• start.shPort, admin credentials, site URL, auction length; then WordPress + WooCommerce (+ auction engine) install, activation, seed.

Use cases

A developer packaging a new, isolated WordPress store for deployment with Docker.

Example

Generate a clothing-store zip, extract it in a test folder, and run its start script.

Quick setup

1. bash factorize-site-builder/new-site.sh (needs Python; Docker only where you run start.sh). Each site becomes its own folder next to the suite (the default output is the repo root).
2. Extract <slug>-site.zip, ./start.sh (default port 8650).

Configuration

The Setup plugin does the same job inside wp-admin for an existing WordPress; the builder is for a brand-new stack.

Step-by-step guide
