WordPress has an amazing REST API and if you don't want to develop the tranditional themes, you can use WordPress as a headless CMS, then learn some JS frameworks like Vue.js or React.
I'm also investing time to learn JS now. But what to do about PHP? Should we just forget about it or is there still place for it even in a headless CMS set up? There's the functions file, but is it worth knowing PHP well still?
