MODERATORS
WordPress has made me the Python developer I am today.
Yes, but WordPress !== PHP. It's one of the worst examples of what PHP can look like and they resolutely refuse to adopt modern standards or improve in any way. They still use SVN too. Bunch of backwards troglodytes.
Modernizing that project would be a nightmare. It's maybe the code base with the most plug-ins, and they should be supported while deprecating and gradually phasibg them out.
I'm working with a client that's built more code in custom plug-ins than Wordpress itself, I'm ambivalent on them not using a more modern code. On one hand it's hard to work with what Wordpress is right now, on the other rewriting all of those plug-ins is a monumental task.
But yeah, at least use git.
