What is Headless Commerce?
Headless commerce is a modern approach to e-commerce that offers businesses the freedom to create unique and engaging online shopping experiences. Unlike traditional e-commerce platforms, headless commerce separates the front-end (what customers see) from the back-end (where product data is managed). This separation gives businesses more flexibility to design custom storefronts and integrate with a variety of digital channels.
How Does Headless Commerce Work?
Imagine a traditional e-commerce platform as a single, integrated unit. In headless commerce, this unit is split into two parts. The front-end can be built using any technology or framework, giving developers complete creative freedom. The back-end, which manages the product data, can be accessed through APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). This means that the front-end can pull data from the back-end to display it on the storefront.
