VTEX headless is the popular name for the e-commerce platform model of the Brazilian multinational VTEX. It's a type of platform where the front-end , also called the head , is separate from the internal technological structure known as the back-end.
Indeed, the main advantage of this platform is its modular design. This allows you to easily install and/or uninstall front-end and back-end components in your online store as needed. It differs, therefore, from a monolithic platform, whose components are intrinsically integrated and cannot be modified quickly.
VTEX ADVANTAGES HEADLESS
By using the VTEX headless platform model to develop and manage your e-commerce, you gain, for example:
- Agile: integrate ready-made and tested apps and create content-rich experiences without having to start from scratch;
- Practicality: integrate third-party applications via API in the “plug-and-play";
- ATHLETIC: optimize each component of your online store independently;
- Versatility: improve the form and function, storefront and applications separately;
- Usability: combine, integrate and modify layout and apps, according to your e-commerce demand;
- Personalisation: combine own apps with third-party apps to offer an excellent experience;
- Multichannel: create experiences of unified trade;
- Innovation: enhance your virtual store with new apps on the market.
Finally, with the VTEX headless system, it's possible to integrate payment, pricing, tracking , marketplace solutions, and much more. You can also build secure and scalable functionalities and applications for very specific demands. With this system, you can build the perfect e-commerce platform as easily as playing with Lego blocks.
