WP Modern Starter Theme Framework

My Path to a Modern WordPress Workflow

I got tired of bloated starter themes and outdated setups. I wanted a workflow that was simple, modern, and fast — so I built one. That’s how WP Modern Starter Theme Framework was born - minimalist yet powerful, built for professionals who write code, not drag and drop blocks.

My Philosophy

No bloat

Start lean, add only what you need.

Developer-first

Built for professionals, not end-users.

Modern tools

Embrace Vite, ES6+, modular CSS/JS, and a clear src/ structure.

Flexibility

Structure and workflow that scale with your projects.

A developer's journey through programming languages and CMS evolution

Josanu Andrei

Full-Stack WordPress Developer

I remember my first experiments with HTML and writing my first "Hello World" in PHP. In fact, the first programming language I studied was Blaise Pascal, and then Python, about which I had no idea would become so popular.

After some time, I discovered Joomla! CMS (that's how it's written, with the exclamation mark) and I have to admit that I like its core which applies the MVC pattern. However, whether you like it or not, WordPress has gained popularity and during the 2000s, it was considered "trendy". A lot of water has passed under the bridge since then and now, as I write this little story, WordPress is a very great CMS, with so many advantages as well as disadvantages that are actually advantages in another way 🙂 Personally, I can't say that I love it, but I respect it because it has an impressive number of users and is a fairly versatile content system that works wonders if you know how to use it correctly.
