What is Headless commerce all about?
Headless commerce is an ecommerce solution that stores, manages, and delivers content without a front-end delivery layer - it separates the front-end and back-end of an ecommerce application leaving only the back-end. This means that developers can utilize their front-end technology of choice to deliver high-quality content experiences, and use an ecommerce solution on the back-end that manages all commerce functionality. This architecture offers customers freedom of expression to build whatever and however they want.
