What are the chances of importing a local WordPress site from Local by Flywheel? I have multiple sites locally on my computer that use Local by Flywheel. It would be awesome to import them to take over with DevKinsta.  
Thanks!

+1 for this. I trust Kinsta FAR MORE than I trust WP Engine and would love to move the 15+ sites I have on Local to devKinsta.

Hi @davewarfel , welcome to the community and appreciate the love for Kinsta! 😄 I’ve updated the existing feature request so our dev team is aware of the additional interest of an automated detection/import process from other Local apps, thank you!
