API

The API is a public API that provides a standard set of tools to help developers simplify common tasks when extending the software. It's especially useful because the WP Cloud Plugins makes full use of namespaces, and working directly with our namespaced classes can be alien for developers who aren't accustom to them.

In contrast, our API is in the global scope, can be accessed through our API class and uses static methods. You can easily call any method using :method_name(). This allows a lower entry barrier for developers looking to extend our software, while still allowing us to take advantage of more modern PHP techniques to streamline our development.

This section of the documentation goes into detail about the usage of each API method which can be found in the file /includes/API.php.
