Headless CMS Comparison
Why we chose a Git-based MDX workflow over traditional CMS options.
Choosing a Content Management System (CMS) is a critical decisions. While options like Contentful or Sanity offer great APIs, we believe closely coupled content offers superior benefits for developers.
The Git-based Advantage
- Version Control: Content is code. You can diff, branch, and rollback changes just like your application logic.
- Performance: No API calls at build time. Content is read directly from the filesystem.
- Flexibility: MDX allows you to import and use interactive components directly inside your articles.
For teams that prioritize developer experience and site performance, a Git-based workflow with Astro Content Collections is unmatched.
