WordPress is now 13 years old

Its template system is ugly. There are projects that bring modern templating to WordPress though e.g. https://github.com/tormjens/wp-blade

Consider though that when its template system was "invented" there wasn't much else available and people back then used to mix code and html all the time (both PHP and ASP developers). In their attempt to keep it backwards compatible we still have to suffer through the template system.

Also the http://roots.io project is pretty interesting with their "alternate" template implementation and workflow.
