This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

Concept

A granular visual sequence that shows everything from client request to WordPress load sequence to server response. Would be very useful for absolute beginners just picking up web development.

Request Headers
File Includes
Global Variables
Constants
Hooks

Code Strategy Hook into the 'all' hook and through that generate and refine a nested load sequence in some form.

At each such hook, get_icluded_files(), get_defined_constants(), __FILE__, __FUNCTION__, __METHOD__, __CLASS__, current_filter(), func_get_args(), etc should give us enough raw data.

By comparing with data already in memory, it should be possible to create a nested ui that displays all such information in a collapsible manner.
