What can Corcel bring to WordPress?
It's here, but you may prefer Composer, the package manager for PHP:

How do i deal with wordpress if i dont want to code in its ecosystem but can code
Or alternatively - there are php packages for working directly with a wp database outside of wordpress: https://github.com/williarin/wordpress-interop, https://github.com/corcel/corcel
- Laravel - Wordpress integration

I have a Laravel 8 app and I want to add a simple blog to it. Do you know any Laravel Blog libraries for Inertia JS?
If you go this route, Corcel https://github.com/corcel/corcel is great.

Any one aware on how to integrate a Laravel backend code with many WordPress frontend sites
You could also try something like Corcel for heavier emphasis on Laravel usage.
-
Should I learn Laravel and become an SWE...or something else?
Another thing you may want to keep up your sleeve to transition between the two is Corcel, which lets you use WP for the backend/body, and Laravel to render the frontend/head of an application.

Best way to build for Simply Static
I've used GeneratePress and their blocks. I might give SimplyStatic another shot this weekend, this time with full site editing and a fse theme I'm making. I also want to try another alternative. SimplyStatic was forked from an earlier version of wp2static included in the bundle.

Is it possible even advisable to have a static landing page with all other pages requiring dynamic functionality(blogs, galleries, shopping page) be wordpress?
Timely plug for Lokl, which I just put out a new release for over weekend :) Allows creating/managing a bunch of WP sites locally, optimized for deploying statically.

WordPress is 18
I've switched from the Jamstack/static site generators to nocode WordPress for content sites, to focus my coding more on app UIs in the long term.
Jamstack is nice, but it's either for personal developer blogs or larger teams. Outsourcing is too expensive with coders being in high demand.
Everything WP can be easily outsourced when needed, and there really isn't much of a speed benefit with Jamstack sites if you cache your WP site on the edge (e.g. with Cloudflare APO). Security of the origin server isn't a problem with a good host or going static.
You can generate static sites from a local WP install if you find secure hosting too expensive, here's a nice docker based tool for this: https://lokl.dev/
WP is really as hard, ugly fast or slow as you make it, you have to find the right theme and plugin ecosystem within WP.
I don't have to and don't need touch the code building sites with it, so all those weird WP code conventions don't really bother me.

Lokl – WordPress local development environment for Mac, Win and Linux
It might be worth mentioning that Lokl [0] seems to be from the same author [1] as the "wp2static" plugin [2], my and many others go to for static site generation of WordPress.
I find Lokl and interesting take, although the usual self-serve script is kind of annoying for power users (what I mean is that this bash scripts tried to do everything for you and it's less transparent), I recommend the repo [4] as the source of the actual Dockerfiles, that you could just reference in something like a docker-compose setup.
The Dockerfiles are kind of surprising since they read more like a an ansible-playbook than like a Dockerfile. This one image has it all - php, nginx, mariadb, phpmyadmin and who knows what else [4]. It's an interesting approach to Docker images, certainly against the recommendation but might have some good reasoning for something as special as WordPress.

I Created Lokl An Optimized Local Wordpress
For Automation, I've got full end to end tests using it in the main https://github.com/leonstafford/lokl repo. Just 1 E2E test in there so far, but that's what I'm planning to use to generate living documentation for the project itself and my SSGs included with it (I suck at maintaining docs otherwise!).

Lokl-an optimized local WordPress environment perfect for static site generation
I thought the reddit discussion did a better job explaining it, but here are the direct links:
https://lokl.dev/
https://github.com/leonstafford/lokl
The developer, Leon Stafford, is also working hard on WP plugins that convert to static sites and even upload directly to popular services such as Cloudflare, Netlify, Amazon, etc.
