How to make a good customizer for a Wordpress theme?

Hey! When developing sites on WordPress, a separate page is always created in the admin panel with site settings for the customer (phone numbers, address, e-mail, copyright, etc.). For sliders, a custom post type is created, which are edited on their page in the same admin panel. There was an idea to integrate all this with the standard WordPress customizer, only without a bunch of settings in the sidebar, but with the ability to edit directly in the workspace (including adding slides in interactive mode). Has anyone been involved in similar developments, how feasible is all this?

It's not very flexible in my humble opinion. If you do for one topic - one question. If something is universal - due to the variety of forms and layout, it is hardly possible. In addition, there are already page builders. As a good alternative is to use the advanced customizer through the framework. For example Redux. Believe me, it's no less convenient.

pro version of acf.
There are repeaters for sliders, galleries and a lot more. And you can also display separate fields for phones, copyright and other

Use ACF pro. But if you really want a customizer, then pay attention to https://aristath.github.io/kirki/
