Why to make these tech stack changes
- WP is not flexible like using React Strapi, but it it get enough templates and themes can save you tens of times on styling
- WP is heavier than Hexo, but with optimisation and for personal blog/CMS purpose, it is way more than enough.
FAQ for Stack Changes

- Not really, it is not like I built a k8s cluster for hosting my personal low traffic WordPress blog, it is more like I built a k8s cluster to make my projects easy to deploy/development, and I used the remaining computing resources for this blog.
