Why Headless, Why Now - With Gatsby & Contentful

A once-in-a-generation movement of business websites is underway. Forward-thinking organizations are leaving behind their monolithic website architectures, where your data/content and frontend are fused together, to a “headless” approach, where your backend and frontend operate independently.

But why? What makes rearchitecting your site worth the effort? Why is it a priority to do it now?

The short answer is nearly every marketing performance metric stands to benefit.

In this webinar, engineers from Gatsby and Contentful will break down the “why” and “why now” of going headless. We’ll even show you how to build a proof of concept.
