- consume content from the Contentful Delivery and Preview APIs
- model content
- edit content through the Contentful web app
The app demonstrates how decoupling content from its presentation enables greater flexibility and facilitates shipping higher quality software more quickly.
Contentful provides a content infrastructure for digital teams to power content in websites, apps, and devices. Unlike a CMS, Contentful was built to integrate with the modern software stack. It offers a central hub for structured content, powerful management and delivery APIs, and a customizable web app that enable developers and content creators to ship digital products faster.
