You're going to love to hate this: Best choice I made was using WordPress! I run https://rpgplayground.com , a web tool to make RPG games without coding (6000+ user published games) The app itself is written in Haxe. My website is WordPress. Haxe because it will be easy to port to any device. Why was WordPress the best choice? Basically everything you need has a plugin. I needed a forum: bbPress I needed a community…

Good on you. WordPress is a fantastic piece of software and I think a lot of the nose wrinkling and hemming a hawing about security comes from people installing suspect plugins. If you stick with the core product and set a very high bar for which plugins you install, Wordpress is rock solid
I didn’t work with PHP since 4 to 5 days and honestly I never feel OK with it personally but always admire two things. First Drupal, second Wordpress.
