JPKCom Gutenberg Bootstrap Optimizer fixes and optimizes settings for the interplay of **Gutenberg** and **Bootstrap**. The plugin works without a settings page — once activated, its adjustments take effect automatically.

## Guide

### Requirements

- WordPress **6.9** or newer (tested up to 7.0)
- PHP **8.3** or newer

### Installation

1. In your admin panel, go to **Plugins → Add New** and click **Upload Plugin**.
2. Choose the plugin's ZIP file and click **Install Now**.
3. Click **Activate** — the plugin is ready to use right away.

There is **no settings page**. Once the plugin is active, the optimizations apply automatically.

## Tips & Tricks

- **Best in Bootstrap-based setups:** The plugin targets projects where Gutenberg is used together with Bootstrap — for example themes or page builders built on Bootstrap.
- **Activate and forget:** As there is no configuration, nothing needs to be set up after activation.
- **Reproducible updates:** Since version 2.0.3 the plugin uses secure self-hosted updates via GitHub with SHA256 checksums and runs with `declare(strict_types=1)`.
