Agree, WordPress is slow and the basic barbone woocommerce plugin is just horrible unusable. To get something decent you need to install some 10+ woo plug ins and some other Wp for security etc etc… I am starting to use shopify for ecommerce.
It would be awesome if pg could facilitate the integration of a open source flat file cms like grav.
I have clients that needs very basic cms and creating a theme for Wp is just too bloated for the purpose.
