Good fit for Most Squarespace use cases — WordPress is the universal SMB website tool with the largest theme/plugin ecosystem.
Weak at Editor experience varies by theme — vanilla Gutenberg is less polished than Squarespace; pick a builder add-on.

Replaces these SaaS
- Squarespace · Website builder + hosting
Pull `wordpress:latest` and `mariadb:11` via the official docker-compose. Install a page-builder theme (GeneratePress + GenerateBlocks, or Astra + Spectra) for a Squarespace-shaped editor. Squarespace export (Settings → Advanced → Import / Export → Export) yields a WordPress-compatible XML file — import via WordPress admin → Tools → Import → WordPress. Pages, posts, and images come over; theme rebuild manually.
