Headless websites
A headless site separates what customers see from the system that holds your products and content. Shopify or a CMS keeps running the back end, while we build a custom front end, which gives you full control over design, speed and how each page behaves.
[ What's included ]
- Review of whether headless suits your business
- Custom front-end design and development
- Connection to Shopify or your CMS
- Editing set up for your team
- Speed, search and launch checks
[ Who it's for ]
Growing brands whose ideas keep running into the limits of a theme, and businesses that want one custom front end on top of more than one system.
Common questions
What is a headless website?
It is a site where the front end, the part customers see, is built separately from the system that manages your products or content. The two talk to each other, so your team keeps its familiar tools and the design is not limited by a theme.
Does my store need to go headless?
Often not. A headless build costs more to create and maintain than a Shopify theme, and a well-built custom theme is enough for many stores. We will tell you honestly if a theme would do the job.
Can I keep using Shopify?
Yes. Shopify can keep handling products, orders and checkout while the customer-facing site is built separately. Your team still manages the store from Shopify.
