Content from WordPress,
speed from Next.js.

All pages and posts are pulled live from your WordPress GraphQL API and rendered as a blazing-fast React app.

How headless WordPress works

The content lives in WordPress. The front-end is entirely yours — built with React, served from the edge.

01

Author in WordPress

Write pages and posts in the familiar WP editor. All data is stored in the WP database.

02

WPGraphQL exposes data

The WPGraphQL plugin adds a /graphql endpoint that speaks the GraphQL query language.

03

Next.js fetches it

Server components query GraphQL at build or request time and render pure HTML.

04

Users get speed

Pages are statically generated and served from a CDN edge — no PHP, no page-builder overhead.

The best of both worlds

WordPress is the world's most mature CMS. Next.js is the fastest way to ship React on the web. Headless architecture lets you use both — content editors keep the tools they know while developers get a modern, unconstrained front-end stack.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

A minimal, production-ready stack. Every piece has a clear job.
