  2. Vite & Vue powered static site generator.
    Obligatory meme: https://rakhim.org/honestly-undefined/19/ I'm personally in the top left corner and bottom right corner. I have used WordPress since 2004-2005, and I've also written a Python static site generator before using Flask, Frozen-Flask[1], and webpack. I've also made stops through tools like Sphinx, Hugo, Gatsby, and VitePress[2]. But my personal site continues to run WordPress[3]. I think I'd prefer something like VitePress these days for a technical documentation site. Also, I recently learned that MediaWiki with a reasonable theme like Citizen[4] is a nice choice for an open source powered private wiki, although I do find the Mediawiki markup language a little cumbersome versus simpler markup languages like reST or Markdown/MyST in the Python community (or GitHub-flavored Markdown or Asciidoc elsewhere).

  3. Provides a simple, local development environment with a friendly GUI.
    Yeah -- though I think VVV has been thoroughly supplanted by Local: https://localwp.com Which almost every serious WP developer I know uses. (I personally use my own simplified Vagrant package management scripts with some ssh_config integration hooks because I work on more than WP and value standardisation across VM environments more than I value the features Local adds).
