How do I make the dev experience of Wordpress suck less?

Hello, I have been working for the last couple of years in the Nuxt/Vue environment, and Laravel before that. Recently, one of our clients asked us to rebuild their website in Wordpress. I have hacked my way through some small wordpress projects before, but it always feels miserable and inefficient. Are there any tools or techniques that you use to make development better? This is mostly a brochure website with limited user functionality on the front-end. Unfortunately, I cannot use headless wordpress given the clients technical requirements. I would love to find a way to introduce reusability for components (heros, CTAs, cards, etc), HMR in dev, or any of the other features I've come to rely on in more modern stacks like Nuxt, while also maintaining the CMS aspects of Wordpress (likely through ACF). Would love to hear your tips + tricks! submitted by /u/dont_trust_lizards [link] [留言]
