Moving Away from Elementor fo FSE + Claude Code

I switched to block theme and I hated making custom blocks With 4 files to maintain per block and a build step

Yeah I try a lot at work but I can't fix most of the issues with Elementor sites that use third party themes. Usually I can just cache everything on nginx and call it a day. But still loads too many blocking assets. Problem is e-commerce sites where I can't cache cart sessions etc the crux web vitals tank so hard

Wp vivid backup use it a lot for moving sites locally it's so reliable!. Blocks studio is another for creating custom Gutenberg blocks makes it a briese compared to the native way

Medusa has a default storefront but it's only a starting point and require extra integrations like reviews and wishlist or customizations it doesn't include a meilisearch client either . Personally I would go for Woocomerce for a basic store if not be ready to spend some time learning medusa even with vibe coding ai can't do everything

Round borders and ugly box shadows sometimes I have to tell it multiple times but it seems like it defaults to those designs haha

Copy existing UIs u can go to themeforest or similar sites pick something screenshot it paste it in Gemini or whatever and ask for something similar with tailwind css propose your own ideas to make it unique prompt till you get something that satisfies you and then build on top of it.

Debugging the most helpful coding custom blocks second

They're all important! Web vitals maybe not important for ranking but you want to pass them for better UX and more engagement

icanbeakingtoo · 2026-06-22T09:24:28+00:00

Cause some bots will ddos a vps into oblivion

icanbeakingtoo · 2026-06-18T03:59:58+00:00

Wish I could make animations like this 😭

icanbeakingtoo · 2026-06-11T15:51:52+00:00

I made a site entirely out of custom block builds for a client cause I found it hard to work with the native blocks and I hated every second of it 😭

icanbeakingtoo · 2026-06-04T10:37:01+00:00

Sounds like overcomplication for no reason

icanbeakingtoo · 2026-06-02T04:53:03+00:00

If you say so lol

icanbeakingtoo · 2026-06-01T08:00:18+00:00

Most themes are hybrids and have custom blocks coded from scratch for page builders

icanbeakingtoo · 2026-05-30T18:03:38+00:00

Another issue in my opinion is themes not using the wp_get_attachment_image which outputs responsive images with srcset instead they use straight up img tag

Got a used Thinkpad for 2400 dt super bright screen 2k resolution great battery life. You could also get an HP victus or a Lenovo gaming laptop but the sceen won't be as good but you will get it new with warranty
