## Description

MAD CAT Design® Tools provides a central admin dashboard for compatible MAD CAT 
Design® WordPress modules and lightweight site tools.

MAD CAT Design® Tools is developed by Vladislav Moroz, the web designer and developer
behind MAD CAT Design®.

The plugin includes a shared dashboard, module registry, compatibility checks, system
status information and common settings for compatible extensions.

It helps keep related site tools organized in one clear interface instead of spreading
settings across multiple unrelated admin pages.

Compatible MAD CAT Design® extensions are installed as separate plugins and can 
register themselves in the MCD Tools dashboard.

### Features

 * Central dashboard for compatible MAD CAT Design® modules
