I have an existing personal website (https://hmenorjr.github.io) which is more of a splash/landing page only. I'm thinking of rebuilding it into a portfolio with a blog/article area. My go-to is WordPress now, because I've created a website for a small agency in the Philippines and exported it into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. You can check it here: https://hmenorjr.github.io/phoutsource.
I need advice if I should do the same. Build it with WordPress (using LocalWP) and export it as HTML, CSS, and JavaSrcript again, or build it manually with either Next.js or Svelte.
Before you look into Next.js, you could probably leverage feather.js here. Because the Website you linked is very basic you could be able to rebuild this page in mere moments.
You should get away as fast as you can from WordPress (not that it does not fit the task... but every WordPress Site is a thousandfold slower than even an averagely complex node.js implementation - just don't do it if you call yourself a developer :)
Hey Jonas, thanks for the advise. Yes, WordPress does the job for small projects. But no worries, I'm still exploring also and trying to implement with other techs. I will build a second version with feather.js ;)
Consider your familiarity with WordPress and the level of customization needed. If WordPress meets your requirements and you're comfortable with its ecosystem, go for it. However, if you prefer more control over your website and enjoy working with frameworks like Next.js or Svelte, building it manually could offer greater flexibility and performance. Assess your needs and preferences before making a decision based on fluency in different systems.

Use WordPress if you want it for something small or medium-sized. Don't waste your time building it when you can do it on WordPress easily.
