I officially logged into Wordpress for the last time six weeks ago.
I’m currently migrating a bunch of my sites over to Next.JS.
Claude has vibed the best SEO, E.E.A.T., CRO (CXL best practice), WCAG 2.0, and schema.org compared to any site I’ve ever built in Wordpress.
The audits OPUS was creating for each of these areas are astonishing.
I’m simply migrating them across to Next.JS and hosting them on Netlify.
I haven’t paid for any premium plugins to get these sites up and running; I just used Claude Max 100.
I won’t be renewing the AUD$3500 in Wordpress ecosystem subscriptions after they run out this year.
For my gardening business (I’m now a professional gardener), I’ve integrated a job route scheduling tool with Claude Code. This tool calculates travel times between my gardening jobs and provides basic CRM functionality for my clients. It uses the Google Distance Matrix API, and my week is laid out like a Kanban board.
For my new gardening website, I’ve created dozens of new service pages over the last ten days. I’ve also created a local admin dashboard that ingests my 1200 or so before and after pictures. This dashboard provides a neat interface to match before and after “pairs,” extracts the EXIF data, calculates the suburb, and allows me to tag by job type. It then moves the photos (stripped of EXIF) into the Next.JS public folder with AVIF and WebP versions and a JSON file that specifies their content.
Claude then uses the JSON to build custom gallery components for each service page.
None of this was conceivable for me two months ago.
I’m primarily building static JamStack sites that are secure.
Is Wordpress secure? I don’t think so.
I’ve done many months of work in the last twenty-one days.
Have I saved myself $50k by doing all this with Claude Code? No, because that was never an option previously.
I understand your concerns about false confidence, and I genuinely respect that perspective. I backed out of Firebase Studio a while ago because I lacked confidence in Gemini’s ability to create safe and functional Firebase rules.
However, the landscape is changing, and the new interface for CMS systems will no longer be the traditional wp-admin. Instead, it will be a user-friendly chat agent with a robust system prompt for building websites, forms, basic workflow rules, business logic, and authentication.
Although I’m not a programmer, I have experience as a digital producer, which has given me a good understanding of toolchains.
If I were a startup envisioning the next generation of CMS, I would be actively working on it and developing it as quickly as possible.
I've built a CMS with Claude Code aswell and its working incredibly to create JSON proposals that my sveltekit website reads and turns into beautiful proposal pages. When a customer creates a booking for my mini-golf hire company they get emailed and they get their own booking hub where they can update their booking details, see the proposal when it comes through see any invoices ect.
The best part is and what i'm so excited about is we have created a daily business script 'npm run daily' that Claude Code runs and the script uses the business logic to move bookings along in the cycle by telling Claude Code what bookings have tasks. It will return, you have 3 bookings that need attention, run 'npm run get-booking [booking shortcode] THEN that script returns ALL data for that booking row from the db and it knows what task is needed to be done so Claude Code has all the context for that booking and it's prompted at the end saying NEXT STEP Claude code run 'npm run generate-proposal [shortcode] JSON output. (there was an example json output in there for claude to know the syntax ) Everything goes to an out tray in the admin web ui that i have to manually approve. I'm still in testing but I'm starting to realise that Claude Code can be an agentic platform for apps run from the CLI, like my automated crm assistant we've built.
Just fantastic! You know you can setup GitHub Actions to move things along? I have made a few. I also installed Claude Code agent in the git hub repository. Then if I want to make changes to the site when I’m out and about I just raise an issue and ask @claude to do something. Also, I have been using Netlify functions to do quite a few different things as well, like sending SMS messages when a form is completed. Also the paid version of Netlify allows background functions that can run too.
The most frustrating problem I have had with Firebase Studio is Gemini 2.5 attempting to create firebase rules... it was completely unworkable in my experience - just constant permissions errors. I pivoted to Claude Code a few weeks ago with Prisma ORM and NEON db running on Netlify. It's been pretty good so far. I will give InstantDB a go soon I think.
Back in January 2010 I went on a blind date with a lady who’s now my wife — an astrophysicist. We talked about this instrument and how Google would shuffle petabytes of raw observations, then distilling them into datasets researchers could actually use (don't know if Google is still involved?). We’ll celebrate 15 years of marriage this January, and I have been following the progress of this telescope since 2007 or so. It's amazing how long it takes for these instruments to come online, but the benefits are significant.
When my wife and I lived in Canberra, we made friends with a few couples who met at alternate homes every Sunday night, almost without fail. I miss that so much. All I want to do is have dinner with the same group of people every week. We moved to Melbourne and then back to Brisbane, but we were never able to replicate that.
Has to be, even a small model is 4gb of RAM. Open up any O365 based product in Chrome and kiss another 2gb goodbye if you only have 8gb you're left with very little after the OS...
iOS apps tend to drop support for older versions very quickly due to that the overwhelming majority of users are at most one version behind, but macOS apps generally don't. Okta Verify appears to be the only third-party app I have installed which requires >11, and that's something that has no reason to support older versions (one of the things it specifically does is stop me from logging into work things if I haven't fully updated my system).
I remember the original Google announcement where it was announced that Google would help with the huge storage requirements for the project, I just dug up the YouTube announcement. Pretty amazed that this video is 17 years old now, a testament to how long these projects are in development for... this 2007 video wasn't even when it began.
I read another article that labeled it “mild hybrid”, curious to know what that even means? A best as I can tell the electric motor assists the diesel motor for acceleration and drive chain. So are there scenarios where both motors are powering the drive chain at the same time, or have I read it wrong?
It looks like I would need the following for this to work:
To use iMessage Contact Key Verification, you’ll need:
iOS 17.2, watchOS 9.2 and macOS 14.2 on all devices where you’ve signed in to iMessage with your Apple ID
Unfortunately my work iMac isn’t on Sonoma, it’s on Monterey. I suppose I could log out on that machine, but still, a bit of a shame older versions aren’t supported.
Am I reading the requirements correctly? Does this mean that for all devices to work with CKV, then all OS’s need to be updated, or will it not do CKV on any devices if even one device is not supported?
I had a chest infection lasting months from mid-june to mid-October, and despite a run of Moxy, then Augmentin, then Roxy, and finally Cefalexin, nothing worked. Out of options, I tried a friend's suggestion: raw garlic and honey. After three weeks, my symptoms and long COVID issues improved. It was a stubborn infection that caused me to over-relying on antibiotics, as the article suggests. Makes me wonder about GP's exploring alternatives, especially with rising drug resistance.
I found that three weeks + water worked when I had a similar issue. To be honest the water felt good. I envisioned peeing as a way to flush the badness out despite knowing that’s just not really how it works.
Yes. Placebo is one of the strongest drugs we got. The problem is how to make a strong placebo… But I remember an interesting study that placebo works even if patient doesn’t believe in it. Ot as effectively though.
