What’s the consensus on embeds / iframes to use other platforms inside WordPress?

[ad_1]

I used to use WordPress a lot, and for basic pages and posts it was always great.

But when it came to advanced UI / UX it was always a mess of plugins, third party extensions etc. Would spend days learning a builder, a plugin etc, research, testing then hit a dead end.

These days I’m wondering about a hybrid approach – using other no code systems with more data and UX capabilities – and embedding in WordPress when suitable.

Anyone else doing that or is there a drawback to this approach I’m missing?

  1. potential issues to consider.

    1. Anything jammed as a guest in an iframe or embed object is at the mercy of the host page sizing, windowing, and all that kind of stuff. There’s a javascript library out there allowing host and guest to cooperate, but they both need library code. http://davidjbradshaw.github.io/iframe-resizer/ I used this in an iframe-using project that worked decently well.

    2. The guest web pages — where you want to put your more modern UI — have to consent to be embedded. See this. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Frame-Options

    3. It’s possible recent work on the React-based object editor in WordPress has overcome, at least partially, your objections to what can and can’t be done in WordPress?
