Throughout this chapter, we developed common custom post features needed for web applications. Even the implementation of common features from scratch needed considerable effort. As applications grow, we need more custom post types, hence we need features such as managing settings through interfaces, advanced post field types, and managing field saving/validations without coding. In such situations, it's a wise decision to use plugins with these advanced features rather than building everything from scratch.
So, we discussed Pods in the previous section as it's one of the best custom post type management plugins available. Here, are we going to look at two popular alternatives, so that you can compare and use the right solution for your application.
