The Philosophy
Independent pizza shops deserve the same quality online presence as the big chains — without the platform fees, monthly subscriptions, or commission cuts on every order. PizzaLayer gives you that, for free.
The entire core plugin — the visual builder, all six templates, the REST API, Gutenberg blocks, and the full admin system — is GPL-licensed and free to use. PizzaLayerPro adds WooCommerce ordering for shops ready to sell directly from their site, and it funds continued development.

What I Stand For
The PizzaLayer core plugin will always be free and GPL-licensed. No paywalls on fundamental features. PizzaLayerPro is paid, but also GPL — no proprietary lock-in anywhere.
Pizza builders don't have to look like 2009. Every template is crafted to feel modern, fast, and brand-ready out of the box.
PHP filter hooks, a JS events API, namespaced function guards, and clean REST endpoints — PizzaLayer plays well with any stack.
The PocketPie template proves it: mobile is a first-class citizen, not an afterthought. Every template responds gracefully.
CPTs, Gutenberg blocks, shortcodes, WP_Query, wp_localize_script — PizzaLayer speaks WordPress fluently from the ground up.
Regular updates, documented release notes, and a growing help repository. This plugin is actively supported and evolving.
