In this workshop, we’ll marry our passion for content and tunes to give you an introduction to headless content management and show you that a CMS can be used to bring infinite ideas to life beyond just your typical blogs. When you think about content management systems, the first one that probably pops into your head is one of the traditional OGs: Wordpress. But did you know there are some more flexible options when it comes to content for the web?
