ContentStack’s Headless CMS Article

ContentStack published an article on the virtues of headless:

How Headless CMS Is Killing the Buy vs Build Decision

ContentStack is a headless CMS company, so take it all with a grain of salt. I like headless, but it’s not the right solution for everything.

The era of the static, custom CMS is drawing to a close.

… perhaps? The guys at GatsbyJS have said the same thing – the future is in “active” componentized DOM manipulation, which would clearly tilt toward headless as a backing store.

If you want other perspectives, there’s a companion thread over at Hacker News that has some good comments, most of which are moderating the article’s claims somewhat.
