Headless WordPress Development

Headless WordPress development — WordPress as a CMS backend with a Next.js, Nuxt.js, or Astro frontend. Fast modern experience, familiar editor workflow.

The best of WordPress, with a modern frontend

Headless WordPress separates what WordPress does best — content management — from what it has historically done poorly: serving fast, modern frontends. Your editors get the familiar WordPress admin they already know. Your visitors get a Next.js, Nuxt.js, or Astro frontend that scores green on Core Web Vitals and loads in under a second.

What we build

  • WordPress REST API backend + Next.js frontend — the most common pairing
  • WordPress + WPGraphQL + Next.js — GraphQL for flexible content queries
  • WordPress + Nuxt.js — for teams that prefer the Vue ecosystem
  • WordPress + Astro — ultra-fast static sites with partial hydration
  • WooCommerce headless — WooCommerce REST API with a custom React or Vue storefront
  • Custom REST API endpoints — exposing WordPress data that the default API does not cover
  • Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) — pages rebuilt automatically on content change
  • Preview mode — content editors can preview unpublished changes in the frontend

When headless makes sense

Headless adds architectural complexity — it is not always the right choice. It makes sense when: your site has hundreds of pages and Core Web Vitals matter for SEO; your frontend team prefers React or Vue over PHP templates; you need to deliver the same content to a website, a mobile app, and a third-party platform simultaneously. We will give you an honest assessment of whether headless is right for your project before you commit to it.
