Headless WordPress VS Directus
Headless WordPress
A headless WordPress site is one that uses WordPress for content management and a different, personalized frontend stack to show material to site visitors.
Headless WordPress can be readily incorporated into many different "stacks" by eliminating the front end. An app's or digital product's stack is essentially its framework.
With Headless WordPress, a marketing team and content team may keep using their familiar WordPress interface, while the development team can continue using their favorite technologies, like React and GraphQL, in a workflow that is known to them with Git.
Directus CMS
Any kind of SQL database may be converted into an API with the help of the Directus Open Data Platform, which is part of the headless CMS.
Using its REST API or GraphQL, Directus, a NodeJS Headless CMS, connects your website or apps to a SQL database.
It is made up of a web app for managing content and an API that enables developers to link that data to a variety of clients, including websites, native applications, kiosks, IoT devices, and other projects that are data-driven.
