2. cd into the new Disable-Yoast-SEO-Redirects directory, and run npm install to install required packages for development into node_modules/ within the repo

3. Optional: If you'd like to enable BrowserSync for local development, or make other changes to this project's default gulp configuration, copy gulp-config.template.json, make any desired changes, and save as gulp-config.json.

   To enable BrowserSync, set sync to true and assign syncTarget the base URL of a site on your local WordPress instance that will use this plugin, such as http://localhost/wordpress/my-site/. Your syncTarget value will vary depending on your local host setup.

   The full list of modifiable config values can be viewed in gulpfile.js (see config variable).

4. If you haven't already done so, create a new WordPress site on your development environment to test this plugin against, and install and activate Yoast SEO Premium.

5. Activate this plugin on your development WordPress site.

6. If you enabled BrowserSync in gulp-config.json, you can run gulp watch to continuously watch changes to PHP files in this project and reload your browser when those files change.
