A curated selection of companies specializing in "Headless CMS Vendors" refers to a handpicked assortment of businesses that offer headless Content Management System services. Headless CMS garners its name from the decoupling of “head” (the front-end or the website people see) from the "body" (the back end where content is stored and organized). Traditionally, the frontend and backend are tied together, but in a headless CMS, they are separated allowing developers to deliver content beyond websites and apps to any platform or device. The specialist businesses or vendors in this realm design, create, and manage these systems, ensuring content is easily accessible, organized, and can be pushed out to different front-end delivery layers. Services typically include creating APIs to access, display, and interact with the data, consistent updates and troubleshooting, and customization to fit the specific needs of their clients. It's especially popular with businesses wanting to future-proof their content delivery as new technologies and platforms emerge.
