Headless CMS developer

Contentful is a hosted headless CMS used by brands with a lot of structured content across websites, apps and regions. Work on it covers content modelling, migrations between spaces and environments, a Next.js front end reading from its APIs, and connecting it to the store so editorial content and products sit side by side.

Strapi is an open-source headless CMS you host yourself: content types defined for your business, an editor your team can use, and an API a Next.js front end reads from. It suits teams that want control over their content model and their hosting.

Payload is a TypeScript CMS that runs inside a Next.js application, so the website and the editing screens are one codebase. It is a good fit for content-heavy sites built by a small team, with fewer moving parts to host.

WordPress is still the CMS most teams already know. It can run as a normal website, or headless with a Next.js front end reading its content, which keeps the familiar editor and gives a faster, safer site. Themes are built without heavy page builders where possible.

Drupal suits large, structured sites with complex permissions and many editors, common in the public sector and education. I work on existing Drupal sites, upgrades and integrations with the systems around them.
