Headless WordPress VS KeystoneJS

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.

KeystoneJS

More than any other CMS or App Framework, Keystone enables you to expand projects more quickly. You may receive a robust GraphQL API and lovely Management UI for content and data by just describing your schema.

Express and Mongoose are the foundation of KeystoneJS, a potent Node.js content management system and web app framework.

The elegant auto-generated Admin UI that comes with Keystone makes it simple to build complex websites and apps.
