<b> A curated list of resources about WordPress as a headless CMS with
Gatsby as a Static Site Generator (SSG). </b>
</p>
<p><br /></p>
</div>
<p>A <strong>headless CMS</strong> is a back-end only content management
system (CMS). Its purpose is to serve content and make it accessible via
an API (e.g. REST or GraphQL).</p>
<p>A <strong>Static Site Generator (SSG)</strong> is a framework or
setup, that helps you to generate static websites (HTML/CSS/JS). The
source of your data can be anything from local files (e.g. text files or
markdown) to APIs (e.g. REST, GraphQL).</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p><strong>Why Gatsby and WordPress?</strong></p>
<p>WordPress is one of the <strong>most used CMS in the world</strong>
and therefore many people already know how to work with it. The typical
front-end approach with PHP-based templates is getting more and more
problematic in an environment where performance is key. The approach to
use WordPress as a headless CMS with normal API calls through JavaScript
already exists, but also has the downside of having to make requests to
the server and rendering depending on the response. This adds time to
load. <strong>Gatsby instead, pre-renders the whole site at compile
time</strong> and therefore the user gets a <strong>fully prepared
static site on their first request</strong>, making it one of the
<strong>best approaches for performance</strong>. Another huge benefit
is <strong>security</strong>, as your WordPress instance can be
anywhere, even locally and you don’t need to expose any of it to the
user. <strong>The static Gatsby site therefore, is not
hackable.</strong> Find further arguments for pros and cons in the
resources below.</p>
