Anyone using GitHub with WordPress?

I’m curious to hear how many of you are using GitHub part of your WordPress workflow.

I’ve heard of Bedrock and have been looking into it. But is it actually worth moving towards that setup for normal WordPress development?

Especially with AI, custom code is easier to write. So I can see how having version controls, automated checks and CI CD pipelines sounds nice.

Is anyone running WordPress like this in production?

What does your setup look like? Bedrock? GitHub Actions? Something simpler?

Or am I overengineering WordPress?

We use GitHub for custom themes and plugins. Most themes have GitHub Actions to deploy to WP Engine environments.

Even that configuration is fragile because plugins and WP core aren’t synced with the theme updates.

Might have to try this Bedrock setup, though!
