Perfecto y simple

It does the job and saves time!
by beltranrengifo·6 years ago

The plugin works fine and is really helpful when using the REST api.

Great little plugin with an active developer
by picksley·7 years ago

Our current set-up is a custom PHP website, that is powered from WordPress via the Rest API

This plugin allows me to eat data from multiple menus, children and use them to power our website. Great and simple plugin

Essential addition to existing wp rest api
by onnohaldar·7 years ago

This Plugin is working perfect when you have to build a more advanced standardized responsive theme. I have tested it with angular 7 and angular material 2 and it did just what is suppose to deliver. Fast access to location and menu data to reuse this to build angular material 2 templated menus.

Great! Thnx!
