There's usually a lot of controversy between the people that say it is great and the people that despise it. And I think both are right in their own ways. WordPress is great as a Product. It clearly works and a lot of people make a living out of it. It powers a big chunk of the internet and that's admirable. But engineering wise (or tech wise, or "good practices" wise or however you want to call it) it is the worst aberration ever built on this world. You can see all the possible bad practices in this industry in both the code and the coding practices most of its community follows. They're stuck in the year 2000 and have no intention to move forward. It is the perfect example that technology doesn't matter if you have a good product. As a developer that used a lot of other things in the past, I feel miserable every time I have to do anything on it. It's frustrating as nothing else I've done in my life.
