Frequently asked questions

Have a question or need some help? reach out to us

    • What is headless CMS in web development?

      In web development headless CMSs can be used as part of a Jamstack web application, where the presentation layer is separated from the content storage and management.

    • How does a headless CMS work?

      A headless CMS (Content Management System) is a CMS that doesn't have a presentation layer. Meaning it organizes your content, and allows access via an API (application program interface) instead of publishing web pages. When you need to create a site base on this content, you query the CMS for the content you want and assemble your page. Typically this happens before you deploy to your web server, allowing you to deliver blazing fast static web pages to your customers.

    • What is a headless website?

      "headless website" is kind of a misnomer. The term we are looking for is "headless cms". This refers to a CMS that does not have a presentation layer by default.

    • Can you use WordPress as a headless CMS?

      Absolutely yes! WordPress makes a great CMS for headless websites. One of the major benefits, it that if your team is already familiar with the WordPress editing experience, you can develop a headless site without much change to your content flows.

    • What is the difference between CMS and headless CMS?

      A headless CMS is missing the presentation layer, and concerns itself with storing and organizing content only. Access to the content is typically done via APIs (application program interfaces)

    • What is an example of a headless CMS?

      Contentful is a very popular headless CMS. There are several offerings at various price points and functionalities. There are also many open-source CMSs with self-hosting options.

    • What is headless CMS used for?

      A headless CMS is great for anytime you need to separate the content management layer from the presentation layer. For example if you have the same articles that you would like to use in two places, you can manage them from one central CMS.

    • What is VUE JS in JavaScript?

      VueJs is a front-end framework that allows developers to quickly prototype and deploy interactive user interfaces, and even single page applications.

    • What can you build with Jamstack?

      Pretty much everything you can build with a traditional site build process, you can build with a Jamstack site. There are some types of sites that would be more difficult to build using the Jamstack method, so it's important to understand the the strengths of each approach in your planning process.

    • Does Jamstack have a backend?

      Jamstack sites do not have an application server or persistence layer, but most do use a headless CMS that's either accessed in a build and compilation process, or via an API. That's the unique attribute of a Jamstack site, without the application server, Jamstack sites can be incredibly fast and secure.

    • Is Jamstack better than WordPress?

      Each web property is unique, as is each use case and user story. The best solution for one application might not be right for the next. WordPress can even be used as part of a jamstack deployment. Confused yet? Don't worry. One of our experienced product engineers can help build a technology that's right for your business needs.

    • Is Jamstack the future?

      Jamstack is a great methodology and cognitive toolkit for certain use cases, it's not a blanket replacement for monolithic CMSs. Will we see Jamstack being used more frequently in the future? Absolutely.

    • What is Jamstack good for?

      Jamstack is a great methodology for all kinds of web sites, including e-commerce and web applications. You can use the methodology wherever you would deploy a traditional consumer-facing web site.
