Is it worth making all blocks on the site changeable through the admin panel?

Question

CMS

This is when I make a site for myself and I know how everything works.
Suppose if I know that I can add menu items, change social network links and similar blocks myself, then it makes no sense to change them through the admin panel and use the database?
But if there are some calculators or conclusions from the database that are really needed, will it make sense to do it in php and, for convenience, change everything through the admin panel? It turns out such a semi-static semi-dynamic site.

Answer 1

Completely change through the admin panel:
1. Extra work to teach the site how to do it.
2. Extra load on the server
3. Based on the fact that you are doing it yourself - then why do you need an admin panel?
4. Answer the question - what will you change so often that you will need an admin panel - you can only yourself.
I switched to site building without admin panels a long time ago.
1. The site solves a SPECIFIC problem. Why these settings, to whom and when they may be needed?
2. Flexible settings - this is very, very difficult. Need to be thought through.
3. Flexible settings - this is a load on the brain when using the site. If this were not so, then 99% of Wordpress sites would not be made by programmers.
4. It works faster this way. Can be seriously optimized.
5. This is how the development goes faster and better. Focused on the main goal - that the user was doing well.

Answer 2

The admin panel is convenient for managing and viewing related data. And if you only need new users, then you can create one php file and close it for users with basic HTTP authorization. Perhaps the functions will accumulate over time and then it will be possible to combine them into the admin panel.

Answer 3

Do a full admin in any case, after some time you will need to change contacts and it would be cool if you do this transparently (intuitively) by going to the contacts tab, than you will remember to read this code.
