WordPress Playground: A WordPress that runs entirely in the browser
WordPress exposes a huge divide in the HN crowd:<p>- one group recognizes WordPress for what it is: a value-multiplier used by non-coders for websites so they <i>don&#x27;t have to deal with the coding</i> and can focus on their core competencies<p>- the other group hates WordPress because of the ugly codebase, and meanders off to work on their own perfectly formatted, ultra-scalable code that has no little to no value because it&#x27;s never actually going to be used by anyone outside of their startup.<p>WordPress powers more than half of the Web. It might not be the best tech, it might very well be the worst possible tech, but the lesson that so many programmers continuously fail to take from WordPress is that NOBODY CARES HOW THE SAUSAGE IS MADE.
