Before Ripple launches.
Can I buy or download Ripple today?
Not yet. Ripple is in development. This page will be updated with the release, documentation and purchase information when it is ready.
What will the first version inspect?
The initial scope is plugin blocks and shortcodes used in WordPress posts and pages. Wider dependency mapping may follow. Supported plugins, versions and content types will be documented at release.
Is the price a monthly subscription?
The planned price is $49 USD per year for one site, including one year of updates and support. Final renewal and license terms will be published before sales begin.
