Except it's essentially the only CMS with a decent user experience, and plenty of plugins to add the functionality needed without ever looking at any code.
If a WordPress alternative shows any code to the user, it has already failed at that.
- atoav 4y agoIs it really tho? I used Grav with great success on my customers and it has a way better user experience than wordpress for certain usecases.
- Saris 4y agoI use Grav on my personal site, it's ok. The editor is the main weak point, editing in markdown instead of a full page drag and drop editor like WPBakery is much harder and slower. It's a struggle for me to even figure out basics, like how do I set up a contact form and embed that, or how do I set up an HLS/DASH video embed. It's decent for very simple personal sites.
