## What is Headless?

A headless CMS is **a powerful tool for managing your content in a flexible and efficient way**. Unlike traditional Content Management Systems, a headless CMS works **independently of the frontend.** This means you can manage your content in one place and push it to any channel you want – be it a website, a mobile app, a webshop, a kiosk or any other kind of platform. In other words, **headless is the way to go when taking an omni-channel approach.**

## Why choose headless?

In today’s digital world, it is important to be able to **distribute your content quickly and efficiently across different channels and devices**. With a headless CMS, you can manage your content in one central place. This makes it easier to provide a **consistent brand experience** with the same information everywhere. Furthermore, a headless CMS offers **more flexibility** in designing the user experience, as the frontend is separate from the content system

## Different layers

With a headless CMS, **the content layer (the ‘backend’) is disconnected from the presentation layer (the ‘frontend’)**. This means you can manage your content in one place and push it to any platform. The content is sent to the various frontends **via APIs**, where it is then presented to the user.

## Advantages of headless

- All content for different channels in one centralised environment
- More creative freedom in the frontend
- Easier to link with external software
- Well-designed headless websites are usually faster and perform better
- Future-proof: when you change CMS or want to introduce a new platform, this can be done without it impacting anything else drastically

## Headless or traditional?

A headless CMS is certainly not a must for every company, but for some it can definitely be interesting. For instance, when different platforms need to be receive the same information, or when you have a website where there should be plenty of creative freedom in the frontend. Our Xplorers are happy to investigate if this could be an interesting route for your company or not.
