A lightweight, free WordPress performance toolkit by Rythzen.

== Description ==
Rythzen Performance gives site owners focused performance controls without bundling a page builder, CDN, analytics service, telemetry, advertising, or a paid-license system.

Features include:
* Disable WordPress emoji overhead
* Disable WordPress embeds/oEmbed front-end overhead
* Optionally unload Dashicons for logged-out visitors
* Optionally remove jQuery Migrate on the front end
* Remove several legacy WordPress head links
* Hide WordPress generator/version output where practical

== Installation ==
1. In WordPress, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
2. Upload the rythzen-performance.zip file.
3. Activate Rythzen Performance.
4. Open Settings > Rythzen Performance.
5. Enable only the optimizations appropriate for your site and test the front end after changes.

== Script Manager ==
The Script Manager disables registered WordPress assets by handle. It supports global, front-page, individual post/page, and post-type rules.

Incorrectly disabling a dependency may break site functionality. Always test checkout, forms, menus, sliders, and other interactive features after adding a rule.

== Privacy ==
Rythzen Performance does not collect or transmit telemetry. It makes no external API requests.
