We love the open source spirit of WordPress and the fantastic ecosystem it's allowed us to build. Unfortunately we also see the tech stack getting older and slower, which alienates young developers. NextPress seeks to fix this by migrating all the core, themes and plugins of our clients to a new tech stack that leverages the benefits of Node and Next.js while maintaining the open source spirit of WordPress. We're also redesigning the admin UX to make it easier to use for non technical users.

Not sure I understand to be perfectly honest. You're completely rewriting Wordpress core in Node+Next.js or is it just another layer in-between the php code? Will older plugins be compatible, or will you have to migrate them using your tool?

Great project! I love useing js to build everything

This is cool! Finally, WordPress gets a speed boost. 🚀 Migrating everything over sounds like a time-saver. Keen to see how this handles complex sites. 🤔

The idea of migrating WordPress to Node and Next.js is exciting.
