Why developers and marketers go headless
Marketers love the familiar doc-style collaborative experience and simultaneous editing. The transition to headless is no biggie – and the ability to create and update content independently from developer timelines makes all the difference.
Teams keep content consistent with governed processes and organized work spaces. In a Kontent.ai project, it’s easy to group content by areas of ownership, like regions, brands, or departments. Modular, structured content encourages reuse, extending the impact of everything that’s created.
