active VS sage

For making links active you can use the Active package and it really makes your code easy and instead of using above code you can write this:

Consider a navigation menu with a bunch of links and you are trying to activate them based on the current active route name. In normal case you have to return the currentRouteName() from the controller or maybe in view composer or any other place. I have wrote a simple Laravel composer package that makes it a little bit simpler. You can take a look it here: https://github.com/tuytoosh/active. For installation use composer require command like this:

Hey there!

Using Django or Flask might be overkill for what you're trying to do. I suggest you to stick with WordPress, but check out the Sage/root style over at https://roots.io/sage.

It's not the classic WordPress; it's a modern, more secure version.

Also only use plugins when you absolutely have to, and if you do, stick with the pros (i.e. Gravityforms).

I've used WP alot (more than 1000s of websites) and I'm also using Python with Flask and FastAPI (but never used Django).

We develop custom themes with sage and acf blocks 10/10, you should try it.. https://roots.io/sage/

If you do ultimately end up having to build in WordPress I'd recommend checking out sage. https://roots.io/sage/

Well, WordPress keeps moving towards drag n drop / visual editing and that makes everything more complicated for people who just want a system to manage data. There are people out there who have invested a ton of time to try and bridge the gap between the direction of wordpress and modern templating features like Sage by Roots (https://roots.io/sage/)

A minimal theme combining Roots Sage 10 and Bootstrap 5.2 (at the time of writing this article 5.3 was an alpha release). and making use of the plugins in places.

Sage starter theme by Roots - this gives us the Blade template engine that we are familiar with from Laravel.
