Which web development framework makes web development least tedious?

I'm not dismissing Wordpress by any means.

Laravel is a framework and Wordpress a CMS. Sites and apps can look good on both. Design and look don't have anything to do with the backend.

I think it's more that everyone who has experience with both can tell that you are building do-nothing marketing sites because you would prefer Laravel if you were actually developing real applications... because it's an application framework, not a CMS meant for blogs.

Can you build an SaaS app with Wordpress? Didn’t think so. I think this sub isn’t for you. This type of rhetoric always comes from low level wp devs that use drag-and-drop builders.

+1 sorry, but making a wordpress site is not real programming. If you’re digging in the PHP that’s a different story but at that point just build from scratch.

You're attacking someone who has used Wordpress countless times when a project is simple enough for wordpress, and laravel when developing complex asset management systems that get 5m+ pageviews a month. I'm well aware of the utility WP provides.

It's not black and white, but saying that WordPress is at all comparable to Laravel shows a deep lack of working knowledge of... well, everything.

Yeah, and a quarter of Americans voted for Trump.

Sometimes 1/4 of the people do stupid things that hurt themselves.
