A headless CMS is an architectural approach that separates content management (backend) from presentation (frontend).
| Feature | Traditional | Headless |
|---|---|---|
| Frontend | Dependent | Independent |
| API | Limited | Comprehensive |
| Flexibility | Low | High |
| Scalability | Medium | High |
// Fetching data from Strapi API
async function getBlogPosts(locale: string) {
const res = await fetch(
`${STRAPI_URL}/api/blog-posts?locale=${locale}`
);
return res.json();
}
The API-first approach future-proofs your digital assets. Create your content once, use it everywhere.
