Litium Headless 

Litium supports any and every headless scenario 

Litium and headless

Litium is a complete suite that includes CMS, PIM and e-commerce. The platform is ready to be used “headless” through an API or for implementing a rapid go-to-market strategy using the Litium Accelerator. Regardless of what you choose, we offer a broad variety for these different scenarios.

Headless API

Use our Headless API and connect to any front-end layer. Expose your products and checkout anywhere.

Use your favorite CMS

If you already have a preferred CMS, you can use it side-by-side with Litium and add PIM and e-commerce from Litium.

Create a hybrid

Apply a hybrid strategy by building custom headless fronts where needed, and using the Litium storefront Accelerator for front-end layers where time-to-market matters.

When should headless be considered?

Headless is not a silver bullet or a strategy that automatically benefits every user. Generally, it is a more demanding setup and requires a certain level of maturity, both when it comes to digital thinking in general and in terms of technical know-how. Your needs and internal knowledge are important to consider before moving into headless.

If you do not plan to employ a standing development team in-house, or outsource the work continuously to external resources, headless may not be for you. It is usually more beneficial to go headless if you plan to launch multiple front-end applications where each solution requires an optimized user experience.

Headless - Q&A

With Litium as your e-commerce platform, you can go headless from the start or whenever you like.

In its simplest form, headless can be explained as the use on and API to separate the front end from the back end, thus freeing the front end from any back-end constraints. 
Most companies experience a strong drive to add new digital channels, improve their digital customer experience and increase speed and agility in development to keep up with or surpass the competition. This is part of the context that most significantly influences and feeds the headless trend.
Headless is not a silver bullet or a strategy that will benefit every user. In general, it is a more demanding setup and it requires a certain level of maturity both in terms of digital thinking and technical know-how. Therefore, internal knowledge is crucial.
If you do not plan to employ a standing development team in-house or outsource the work continuously to external resources, headless might not be right for you. Headless is also probably not the best solution if you do not plan to launch multiple front-end applications or use a separate CMS.
