Overview
Jetpack is an amazing plugin with many great features. Sometimes, however, you just want to use a specific feature from Jetpack and don’t want to go through the hassle of connecting Jetpack to your WordPress.com user account. This is where this plugin comes in handy.
Just install this plugin and you will get access to all of the Jetpack modules that do not require a connection to WordPress.com.
If you find that the module you are interested in is not available after installing this plugin, that is an indication that a WordPress.com account is required for that module. These include Site stats, Publicize, and a few others.

Better than Jetpack itself!
by Alex Mansfield·9 years ago
Jetpack’s unnecessary requirement to connect to a WordPress.com account is so frustrating. This plugin removes that requirement for all Jetpack modules that don’t really on WordPress.com services.
Great

I only want to use Jetpack for gallery and this allows me to easily do it
Use Jetpack locally

Perfect for using Jetpack on local installs with Desktop Server, or when you don’t need all the connectivity with WordPress.com. Just install and activate and most features of Jetpack work.
Makes development so much easier
by Deborah Edwards-Onoro·10 years ago
Great plugin to use for development. I enable several Jetpack modules for clients’ sites. I’ve always wanted an easier way to use Jetpack in development mode.
Quick and easy to use, I recommend it for anyone setting up a development site with Jetpack.
This plugin does what it says
by Ulrich·11 years ago
This plugin is great for development sites. It was quicker for me to install this plugin then to search for the filter or constant that I needed to activate the development mode in Jetpack.
