+1 on WordPress

WP is a full blown CMS. It’s very versatile and you can achieve a lot with just the core. Additionally the Gutenberg Editor is the definitive editor for building content-pages.

A few month ago I tried to find a CMS as feature-complete as WP. However, I wasn’t able to find any good alternatives. I also asked on another forum and summed up my favorite WP features:

- Extendable admin area

- Custom post types

- Single- and archive-pages/-routes

- Taxonomy aka categories and tags

- Dynamic meta data (especially with ACF)

- Solid page editor for content

- Action-/Filter-capabilities

- Shortcodes

- Open Source

- Very compatible upgrade philosophy

- Media Library including automatic image scaling

- User Login

- API Support with custom routes

However, you need to know, that WP is higher settled than frameworks like Laravel. Especially data-management gets tedious on bigger instances. Just have a look at the DB schema and you will see, what I mean. On our company we solved this issue by integrating Illuminate/Database btw.
