AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Encute is a well-rated WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 1 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Encute works
Show full descriptionShow less
Encute provides a fluent, declarative API for site owners to manipulate the scripts and styles that WordPress, themes, and plugins shove onto their site. Move things into the footer, defer loading, remove assets entirely. Or load scripts async, or as modules, or as nomodule!
Here’s an example of how you could use the plugin:
<?php
use CWS\Encute\{ Plugin, Script, Style };
add_action(Plugin::class, function (Plugin $plugin) { $isContactPage = fn () => is_page('contact'); Script::get('contact-form-7')->keepIf($isContactPage)->footer()->defer(); Style::get('contact-form-7')->keepIf($isContactPage)->footer()->defer();
Style::get(['mediaelement', 'wp-mediaelement'])->footer()->defer(); Style::get('material-icons')->defer(); Script::get('jquery')->remove(); });
Wrapper Always run code in this wrapper:
add_action(\CWS\Encute\Plugin::class, function (\CWS\Encute\Plugin $encute) { // Your code here. });
This wrapper will be a no-op if Encute is not available, and it will both wait for Encute to be available to run, and pass you Encute’s main class instance.
Fluency Both Script::get() and Style::get() return an instance of themselves, as do all calls to their methods, so you can just chain your calls.
Script
static CWS\Encute\Script::get(string $handle): CWS\Encute\Script — get a Script instance for that handle.
CWS\Encute\Script::module(): CWS\Encute\Script — make the script a module.
CWS\Encute\Script::noModule(): CWS\Encute\Script — make the script nomodule.
CWS\Encute\Script::footer(): CWS\Encute\Script — send the script to the footer (along with its entire dependency family).
CWS\Encute\Script::async(): CWS\Encute\Script — make the script async.
CWS\Encute\Script::defer(): CWS\Encute\Script — make the script defer.
CWS\Encute\Script::remove(): CWS\Encute\Script — remove the script.
CWS\Encute\Script::removeIf(callable $callback): CWS\Encute\Script — remove the script if the callback resolves as true.
CWS\Encute\Script::keepIf(callable $callback): CWS\Encute\Script — keep the script if the callback resolves as true (else remove it).
Style
static CWS\Encute\Style::get(string $handle): CWS\Encute\Style — get a Style instance for that handle.
CWS\Encute\Style::footer(): CWS\Encute\Style — send the style to the footer (along with its entire dependency family).
CWS\Encute\Style::defer(): CWS\Encute\Style — defer the style’s loading.
CWS\Encute\Style::remove(): CWS\Encute\Style — remove the style.
CWS\Encute\Style::removeIf(callable $callback): CWS\Encute\Style — remove the style if the callback resolves as true.
CWS\Encute\Style::keepIf(callable $callback): CWS\Encute\Style — keep the style if the callback resolves as true (else remove it).
