A headless CMS is a content management system that separates the content repository (the "body") from the presentation layer (the "head"). It delivers content through APIs, allowing developers to use any front-end technology to display the content, providing greater flexibility and scalability.
Unlike traditional CMS platforms that couple the content management and presentation layers, a headless CMS focuses solely on content management. This separation allows for greater flexibility in how content is displayed and distributed across different platforms and devices.
Using a headless CMS offers several benefits, including increased flexibility in content delivery, improved performance, better scalability, and enhanced security. It also allows for easier integration with various front-end frameworks and tools, making it ideal for multi-channel content delivery.
Integrating a headless CMS with Webflow involves using the CMS's API to fetch content and display it in your Webflow site. You can use tools like Wized to handle the API calls and dynamically populate your Webflow templates. This setup allows you to combine Webflow's design capabilities with the flexibility of a headless CMS, creating powerful and scalable web applications.
