Why choose Brightspot Headless CMS?
With Brightspot's flexible architecture, you can go headless to power an API-first design, use our front-end framework—or do both.
Agility
With a headless implementation, back end and front end developers can be working on their parts of the project concurrently.
Flexibility
Ability to mix and match front-end content offerings, meaning the best user experience can be delivered across every device, channel and touchpoint.
Resiliency
Supports organizations in future-proofing their businesses by making it easy to continually evolve alongside new technologies.
Reusability
The modular approach of a headless CMS likewise means you're far less likely to have code that's customized for a specific implementation.
Focus on Business Logic
We offer a relatively hands off solution which builds generally useful APIs with some simple configuration but also an advanced solution where developers can customize their APIs to a significantly granular level, all via data modeling
Automatically generated APIs based on data models
No worrying about boilerplate and domain knowledge necessary for building an endpoint from scratch
Self-Describing Type System
Enable your developers to easily discover what data types and fields are accessible from Brightspot’s Content Delivery API.
Use whatever front-end programming languages and frameworks you want to create a front-end that talks to the headless APIs
Write your code once and it can be consumed by infinite mediums

What is a headless CMS?
Headless CMS solutions are a subset of decoupled CMS architecture. With a headless CMS platform, there is no fixed front end—instead, the solution acts as a content-only data source. This allows developers to use a combination of their favorite tools and frameworks to determine where and how content appears.
