Headless CMS
A content management system that stores and delivers content through APIs without a built-in frontend presentation layer.
What Is Headless CMS?
A headless CMS decouples content management from content presentation. Content is created and stored in the CMS backend, then delivered to any frontend (website, mobile app, kiosk) through APIs. This gives developers complete freedom to build the frontend with any technology while content editors use a familiar editing interface
Popular headless CMS options include Sanity, Contentful, Strapi, and WordPress in headless mode. Headless architecture enables faster sites, omnichannel content delivery, and better developer experience.
