What is Headless Theming?
Headless architecture separates the presentation layer (the theme) from the content management system (CMS). This allows developers to use modern frameworks (React, Vue) for the frontend while managing content separately.

Frameworks like Next.js or Gatsby excel at building blazing-fast themes powered by data fetched from services like Contentful or Strapi. This is the ultimate 'theme lower' approach to structure.

While the initial setup is more complex, the long-term benefits in performance and flexibility are substantial for high-traffic sites.
