Discussion DevOps for Wordpress

I have a WordPress team still building and maintaining sites without a DevOps workflow. What's the best way to bottstrap them into a more modern method of development. I'm assuming GitHub and GitHub actions. But what else, composer which we don't really use even tho we have PHP devs, wp-cli which I use but I'm suppose to be a sysadmin and cloud engineer to wp devs who don't do any of this. They don't even use local git which I even use. Trying to express WordPress engineering and un/structured data and all these modern concepts that just go over their heads bc what's worked still works but when it comes to larger clients who expect more from us/them, they're basically fish out of water.

what's wrong with that? in the end they're just scaling a software product with its own engineering needs

They don't even use local git which I even use.

i take this to be the bigger issue. the use of words is all fucked. they got a whole team not using git, i have they at least use svn or something. "which i even use"... yeah i hope you're using version control as a devops/sysadmin/cloud engineer. introducing a devops mindset and environment to this company is gonna be a lot of work. i'd rather find another job

that's what I'm doing bc it's a mute point. They just ignore it.

A mute point ? Are you sure it's not a moo point? You know, cow talk ...

After all, it's a cow's opinion. Why would that matter? 😂
