FAQ
What are headless solutions?
Headless solutions separate the frontend presentation layer of an application from its backend functionality. In simpler terms, the user interface of the software is separated from the logic and data storage behind it. This allows developers to create user interfaces that are decoupled from the backend, which makes the application easier to scale and maintain—meaning developers can use any frontend technology they prefer without being restricted to a specific backend. Headless solutions store content and product data in a backend database or API, while the frontend is responsible for displaying that information to the user.
How does Wix Headless differ from traditional Wix websites?
Wix Headless differs from traditional Wix solutions by separating frontend and backend components. This means developers can use any frontend deployment platform while leveraging Wix’s powerful backend services—eCommerce, Content Manager, Bookings, Scheduling, Events, Ticketing, and Pricing Plans.
Is Wix Headless free?
While you can start coding with our SDK for free, upgrading to a Premium Plan will unlock many additional benefits which are essential to the operation of your business. These include receiving payments, accessing in-depth analytics, connecting a custom domain, and enjoying other advanced features. To make the most of your experience, consider upgrading to a Premium Plan when you're ready to explore these expanded capabilities.
What are the benefits of using Wix Headless?
Some benefits of using Wix Headless include the ability to create highly customized frontend experiences that are tailored to specific business needs, faster development cycles, and easier integration with third-party systems and services. These benefits allow developers to create user interfaces that are decoupled from their backend, which makes the application more scalable and easier to maintain. It also allows developers to make changes to the user interface without having to re-write or re-deploy the entire application. This architecture is becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to streamline development and allow for greater flexibility in delivering content across different platforms and devices.
