The devtools is a Grav Plugin that lets you quickly create a scaffolding for your new plugins and themes. The plugin provides CLI commands that allow for the quick and easy deployment of a sample scaffolding for your new plugin.
The simplest way to install this plugin is via the Grav Package Manager (GPM). From the root of your Grav install type:
bin/gpm install devtools
If for some reason you can't use GPM you can manually install this plugin. Download the zip version of this repository and unzip it under /your/site/grav/user/plugins. Then, rename the folder to devtools.
You should now have all the plugin files under
/your/site/grav/user/plugins/devtools
