Headless CMS Explained: A Guide for Marketers and Developers
Blog post from Prismic
Headless CMS, such as Prismic, revolutionizes content management by decoupling content creation and management from the website's front-end technology, allowing marketers to independently manage and update content without developer intervention. Unlike traditional CMSs like WordPress, which integrate content and code, headless CMS uses APIs to deliver content from the cloud, enabling developers to choose optimal tech stacks for the front end. This separation promotes flexibility, performance, and scalability, making it ideal for projects that prioritize performance, custom design, and frequent content updates. Prismic extends this concept with a headless page builder, providing marketers with the autonomy to create and modify pages using developer-created reusable elements, enhancing speed and control over web projects.
