Use WordPress as backend with fully functional dashboard with React front end? (ecommerce site)

[ad_1]

Hello,

What’s the preferred method for building out a completely custom front end with React to be used with WordPress as a CMS, these days? I have a client who wants more control over their theme (to be built by a dev) while also being able to manage their store fully from their WordPress dashboard.

I’ve done a bit of googling around, it seems there’s a framework called [Frontity]) which was used for this. Apparently it’s no longer being maintained, so I was wondering if this is still the gold standard or if there’s a better way?

  1. If you are looking to use wordpress headless, I would prefer just consuming the rest-api in a next.js frontend.
