Problem
Modern decoupled WordPress architectures, headless frontends, and external API integrations often fail due to strict browser CORS policies blocking cross-origin requests.
Role
Independent Creator & Maintainer.
Approach
- Built a lightweight, focused WordPress utility plugin allowing granular control over Cross-Origin Resource Sharing headers.
- Implemented configurable origin, method, and header whitelists for native REST API and custom endpoints.
- Provided regular updates, documentation, and troubleshooting support for the open-source community.
Result
Adopted by 6,000+ websites worldwide, providing seamless API connectivity and reducing setup friction for decoupled WordPress stacks.
