plasmic VS wordpress-develop

Plasmic - A fast, easy-to-use, robust web design tool and page builder that integrates into your codebase. Build responsive pages or complex components; optionally extend with code; and publish to production sites and apps.

You can also take a look here! https://github.com/plasmicapp/plasmic/tree/master/platform/w...

This is Plasmic-generated code that we ourselves use to build our visual editor.

How does this compare to https://www.plasmic.app/?

It is an arg, this is an in-character post and yes it does use the website creator https://www.plasmic.app inside of the website linked you would enter codes into the search bar and solve puzzles to enter different parts of the site, it is 100% an arg which I have created.

Plasmic has a similar concept of Code Components. Using almost the same code you can support any headless CMS/data source that allows for Markdown input.

The problem is architectural.

Wordpress at its core execute most of its user-facing code trough an un-parallelizable, self-modifying single threaded queue, which has to be run at every page reload[1] and everything and anything will have to inject stuff in it. From handling your pictures in your media library, to checking your server can actually send mails, to managing your page and posts content and layout, everything goes trough it. It's also a system that doesn't really play ball very easily with most PHP accelerators outside of baseline PHP opcache. You may have better luck using a static cache or memcached. Depending on the theme you're using (90% of what's available from envato themeforest, for example) the improvement will be negligible.

All of the data you're accessing is also for the most part queried from two tables of a single database instance[2] which again handles everything from your mail configuration, page routing and redirection, page layout, contents, stored forms, etc. No sharding, load balancing is natively available. Heck, most WP hosted solutions run MySQL on the same instance running Apache and PHP. Also the data is usually stored as serialized php values, which have to be parsed and reformatted, again, at every page load using the system described beforehand.

Yup, it would helped with autoloading the core classes.

It is the wp dev repo from some years ago, so it is the node modules that were used by wp core: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop

Wordpress is open source. Anyone can submit code suggestions https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop

Addendum to my previous comment(as an in-depth technical review):

Check out the source code of wp_insert_post() [0] on line 4407, you'll see three hooks that trigger: "edit_post_{$post->post_type}", 'edit_post' and 'post_updated').

Then after that, these other ones trigger unconditionally: "save_post_{$post->post_type}", 'save_post' and 'wp_insert_post'.

For the cherry on top: wp_after_insert_post() is called, with several other hooks on their own.

Try to evaluate each configured workflow whenever every one of these hooks triggers. Your WordPress installation will get slow in no time.

Somebody designed this function this way, and that design is inhibiting effective WordPress automation.

I was planning to include something I call "WP Fix - Unified Core Kit" (aka WPF-UCK); but, I believe the fixes are coming to WordPress real soon already: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/1806.
