  5. Static site generator for WordPress
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    Consider a static WordPress site via the WP2Static plugin: https://wp2static.com Going static solves most of the performance and security problems with WordPress. There's a prebuilt Docker setup at https://lokl.dev/ and an AWS template at https://staticweb.io/open-source/wordpress/ There are also commercial hosts (with their own plugins) at https://www.strattic.com/ and https://www.hardypress.com/ I've worked a bit with Contentful, and it seemed like a pretty good CMS, but pricey. The client was moving off of it because they wanted the more familiar WordPress UI.

  6. The professional website platform for Drupal & WordPress sites.
    Https://pantheon.io/ has WordPress plans with dev/staging/prod sites integrated with git. I would highly recommend trying their system out rather than trying to figure out how to make WP cooperate on your own. Don't try to use WP for anything involving a lot of programming. It will just hold you back. Use it for projects simple enough that you don't mind writing a few MySQL DDL statements with DIY migrations.

  7. Visual website builder for WordPress.
    New page builder just came out, may be someone will be interested in trying - https://bricksbuilder.io Looks like a combination of Elementor + Oxygen, and looks like it is producing very clean HTML and some how compatible with Gutenberg (haven't tried this yet).
