WordPress

Keep it simple

An attitude I’m seeing a lot of, in the wake of the Mullenweg/WP Engine drama, is “ditch #WordPress and replace it with [whatever static site generator is currently trendy].”

So many folks in the tech community don’t seem to grasp that a lot of us—including those of us with tech skills—don’t want to be worrying about things like build processes, deployments, or command-line wrangling with Ruby or Node. We want to log in, do our work, and hit “Publish”.
