Why GraphCMS?

Choosing GraphCMS for Your ReactJS Project

GraphCMS is a headless CMS based on GraphQL. We all know that GraphQL and React are like peanut butter and jelly as they were both created to solve the problems of managing structured content in an easy to understand way.

GraphCMS is one of the best choices for a "React CMS" because it based 100% on GraphQL and, as such, helps makes working with your structured content as simple as possible. The concept of a headless CMS is directly in line with the component based philosophy of React.

Why Use a Content Management System With React?

Most likely you work with React because of its component structure and development performance. Using a CMS with your ReactJS project in replacement of hard-coded content means your developers no longer have to deal with things like spelling errors and manually adding locales. Getting started with a React CMS (React + Headless CMS) will garner your team of developers and marketers the best of both flexibility and scalability.
