I think this is where a pretty large group of developers sit as well! Tried it back in the day, it had some major pitfalls, and then never picked it up again. It's easy to do with so many other frameworks and technologies out there.

There's also no doubt that the cheap, churn and burn WordPress themes help perpetuate the stigma associated with the platform. The folks that understand WordPress Core, and how to hook into that core functionality, know how to build a lean and performant theme.

Really appreciate you reading, and the comment!
