No release zip yet. The repository archive installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow:
wp plugin install https://github.com/uttoowar/tax-logic-engine-wp-/archive/refs/heads/main.zip📌 Engineering Overview
This project serves as a technical demonstration of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) within the WordPress ecosystem. It focuses on the strict separation of business logic from the presentation layer (UI).
🎯 Key Engineering Standards
- Strict Typing & Sanitization: Uses
floatval()andesc_html()to prevent XSS and ensure data integrity. - Abstraction: Core calculations are handled via private class methods to prevent external tampering.
- WordPress Coding Standards: Adheres to the "Plugin Header" requirements for proper WordPress initialization.
🛠️ Tech Stack
- PHP: Version 7.4+ (Class-based structure)
- WordPress API: Shortcode API
- Environment: WordPress Core
🚀 How It Works
The engine uses a dedicated Class TaxLogicEngine to handle dynamic tax calculations for international e-commerce contexts.
Usage
Place the following shortcode on any page or post:
[calculate_tax amount="500" rate="12"]
📂 File Structure
