Hello I’m Grégoire,
I’m a 37 years old Dev from Lyon, France.
I’m new to frontity and have decided to use it for a client as a freelancer.
Yo, fellas! Looking forward to cooperate with you! I have some front-end developing background, but i preety much 0 at web-development. Right now I’m creating an online store and have some questions about frontity.
Thank you both for joining the community, and welcome! Feel free to share any questions you might have in the Dev Talk & Questions category.
Looking forward to seeing your projects!
Hi ! I’m Marc, just discovered Frontity today usually I only work with WordPress page builder but I’m exciting to start a new project with Frontity
Hey @Marc.GB welcome to the community!
Can’t wait to see what you build using Frontity, keep us posted
Hi Guys,
Introduction from my side. And a little background how I ended up at frontinity.
Recently one of our major websites (wordpress) got hit by the google core update of 3 december. We lost about 25% of our traffic. Although it’s always hard to predict, I think speed is definitely one of the reasons. So I started researching how people got their websites so fast.
After looking at some websites that actually got an increase in traffic, I noticed quite a few of them were on react, and were in fact insanely fast as well. At that point I realised, I want this speed for my website
Last 2 days, i’ve been playing around with gatsby, and it was not until 2 hours ago, that I stumbled upon frontinity. It seems that this is exactly what i’m looking for.
Some feedback from me. I have to say, I was a bit skeptical about frontinity in the beginning. Since i’m quite visually oriented, I had to dive deep into frontinity templates, before I found one that was appealing to my eye. (i’m lazy and like to work from templates ) Hence also the reason why I liked gatsby, because i could find some visually very nice themes such as this one.
After finding this template https://awsm.in/, and looking at the stunning results of pagespeed of google, I was sold.
Oh, and btw about me. I have basic dev knowledge. HTML/css and a little bit of javascript. I work my way through tutorials, to get things working
Excited to start exploring frontinity in the next days/weeks and see if I can get it working.
Hi! My name is Will. I’m a new graduate, looking to build a website for a client. Headless CMS was something I just discovered. After researching React Frameworks for Wordpress… I found Frontity! Awesome job guys, looking forward to digging into it more. I just setup the example app.
Hi @wtzr, and welcome!
Many thanks for your feedback. We should definitely give more visibility to all the themes that are available. Keep us posted of your progress!
Hi @waldnont ! Thank you for the nice words, and welcome to the community! We look forward to seeing what you build with Frontity
Hello, Thank you for warm welcome
Hi fellow Frontity users,
I’ve posted to the forum a few times already and realized I forgot to introduce myself I work as a Front End developer in Northern California - I know the shock! I’ve decided to port a part of one of our marketing websites over to Frontity for real world testing. Reasons for the trial are:
To be able to use React components for better ui consistency, testability, etc.
Obviously the WordPress as a data source thing is huge and we have a large, legacy WordPress site
Performance, we are hoping to boost page load times to decrease bounce rate
Anyway I like what I’ve been able to achieve so far and am glad to be a part of the Community! Cheers!
Simon
Hey @sattley great to have you here
Love to see what are your motivations for using Frontity, as you can imagine we are great believers of the potential of combining WordPress with React. Happy to see that one of your main concerns is the developer experience.
Btw, it’d be great to see what you’ve built and understand if you have been able to accomplish your goals. If you have the time, I’d love to read about your case in the Showcases section
Hi Frontity community! My name is Zach, and I work in SEO. Joining the Frontity community as I help with some sites that have recently migrated over to Frontity.
Looking forward to meeting y’all and learning more about the framework. Once I get plugged into the community a bit more, I’ll be looking first into XML sitemaps + Frontity, as that’s a tough pain point for the sites I’m looking at right now.
Hey @zldoty
Welcome to Frontity I’d love to check the sites that have migrated to Frontity, can you share the links?
I’m sure the community will be happy to help you with your questions in the #dev-talk-questions section.
Hi! My name is Lionne. I’m a dentist by trade but closed my clinic due to the pandemic, so I got into blockchain development. Please go easy on a noob :).
Over the past month and a half, I’ve literally spent 24/7 learning the back-end code to create a website that will sell an NFT (not a marketplace, just sell a company’s NFT) and I’d love to be able to integrate a front-end website. I’m running the truffle framework (to deploy the contract via the Alchemy’s node server) alongside Node.js on the backend. Will this work with Frontity + worpress as the frontend?
Thank you and look forward to growing with the community!
Hi @8vejovis8
Welcome to the Frontity community. The project you’re working on sounds really interesting.
To answer your question, in a normal configuration Frontity is the frontend and WordPress is the backend. Frontity will normally source it’s data from the WordPress REST API, but it can fetch data from other sources too. Frontity uses the wp-source package to get it’s data, but you can use JavaScript’s fetch API within a component to get data from other sources too.
Hope this helps, and do please let us know how you get on with this extremely interesting project.
