Headless Content Types

This section describes the content types that populate governed site objects.

Headless content is fetched through BFFs to hydrate front-end structures that are already declared by metadata.

Core Rule

Headless content should be understood through three lenses:

  • content type
  • site-targeted BFF contract
  • manifestation point in the UI

The manifestation point is typically the Block level.

Separation Rule

  • metadata declares structure and behavior
  • headless content provides the payload
  • BFFs are front-end-targeted and should therefore be understood under each site family and site context, not only as abstract domain endpoints
