        @Casmat WordPress here. I wrote my first two plugins this year. I didn't find it too difficult but i do have a lot of experience with php.

        For web hosting I'm using vultr.

          @Casmat wordpress here too, with WooCommerce. So using lots of "off-the-shelf" plugins for stuff like serial number assignment and issuing etc. Using it becuse its pretty close to what I would really like in terms of functionality, but yeah the UI design is not too "cutting edge" even with a paid-for theme.

          Basically WP because its the best compromise of time vs look vs functionality...

          I havent got into making my on WP plugins yet.

              Wordpress here too :) And I'm using VPS, which is faster than shared hosting (I've used DigitalOcean and Vultr, both are great).

                @d-healey ahh, that’s good! I may have to dabble a bit more into plugin making now, I’ve got a bit more php knowledge now than when I first tried!

                    @Lindon yup, that’s what i had thought in terms of compromises, I guess you can’t get anything perfect without spending lots of time on a custom site haha

                      @DanH Wordpress + WooCommerce combination will be great and classic. Shopify is more like "in-the-box" all in one solution when it is compared to WP. Not qui...

                          There is a risk with ChatGPT that you learn bad coding, because unless you know the difference you will assume that if it works it's good code.

                          If you already know what you're doing and you're using ChatGPT to shortcut work you could do that's one thing, but relying on it to produce code you don't understand is not always a wise idea.

                          I use ChatGPT all the time to write little snippets, and I almost always have to correct/improve them.

                            @bendurso @d-healey yeah I haven’t had the best experience with ChatGPT, and it rarely has worked for me, unless its a question on syntax or a small part of code

                              Another question I guess, how have you guys done designing on Wordpress, it’s of course a bit clunky, do you use things like elementor/Divi to design or what?

                                @Casmat I like to be as minimal as possible. I use the Storefront theme and Gutenberg.

                                However I'm experimenting more with blocks and playing with FrostWP. I also added the responsive blocks plugin just yesterday because it has some stuff I'm not able to do with vanilla gutenberg.

                                You should also add the code snippets plugin, it has a ton of uses and makes customising things with code very easy.

                                      @Casmat I am using Wordpress with WooCommerce for my main shop. However I am currently switching to using Nextjs and relying on Gumroad for my backend.

                                      I think using Webflow + Gumroad is also a good choice.

                                      I dislike the idea of having a php blog engine that is patched to run a Webshop as it comes with a lot of complexity and overhead. I like to follow the UNIX philosophy: Do one thing, and do it well.

                                        @oskarsh Whaaaatt!? sinuslabs.io looks AMAZING! Definitely one of the best wordpress/woocommerce sites I've ever seen. I would've never thought it'd be WP other than the checkout and login pages haha. I haven't heard much about oxygen, but it seems to be doing wonders!

                                          If you are going to check out Oxygen take a look at this: https://bricksbuilder.io/ which is supposed to be a much improved Oxygen 2 basically.
