Developing a Wordpress site or theme can sometimes be a frustrating experience, especially if you also have some experience or more comfortable with modern PHP or JS frameworks.

So, if we want a better development experience for Wordpress, looking for other frameworks for tools and inspirations is a good idea.

With Laravel Mix we can use CSS preprocessors, Modern JS and live reload.
