## Description

The **System Info** plugin generates a `composer.json` file and provides system 
information based on the active plugins and theme in your WordPress installation.
It’s designed to help you easily manage your site’s dependencies through Composer,
a tool for dependency management in PHP.

### Features

 * Scans your current WordPress setup to detect active plugins and the active theme.
 * Automatically generates `composer.json` content with the necessary Composer requirements
   based on the detected plugins and theme.
 * Displays the generated `composer.json` content in the WordPress admin interface
   for easy copying.

### Usage

 1. After activating the plugin, navigate to `Tools -> System Info` in the WordPress
    admin interface.

 3. Copy the displayed content and use it in your Composer setup as needed.

### Example Output

 “name”: “yourname/wordpress-site”, “description”: “A WordPress site managed with
Composer”, “require”: { “php”: “>=7.4”, “johnpbloch/wordpress”: “_“, “wpackagist-
