WORKED

contentful and sanity are in the lead

Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: headless CMS (when you have developers to build new templates)

WORKED

On the other end of the spectrum are headless solutions with your pick of framework, let’s say Contentful + Next.js. While far less flexible for a non-developer, the outcome is a rock solid, repeatable, maintainable template.

Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: Headless CMS paired with Next.js for a solid, maintainable site

MIXED

Try to get help with a Wordpress issue vs Contentful. Also their pricing seems to think that customers are either free-tier devs or enterprises who can afford hundreds or thousands of dollars a month.
