Headless Websites & E-commerce

A headless development company, not a template shop.

We architect and build custom headless platforms on Next.js, React and DatoCMS, for teams who need a partner that owns the technical decisions, not a vendor waiting for a spec.

Headless Architecture

Performance-first platforms, built for the long term

Headless architecture decouples your front end from your content and commerce layer, giving you full control over performance, integrations, and design without CMS constraints. We don't just implement headless; we architect systems that are maintainable, scalable, and dependable as your product evolves.

Custom Headless Websites

Our Headless Web & E-commerce Services

We create high-performance headless websites and e-commerce solutions tailored to your needs, offering scalability, seamless integrations, and optimal user experiences.

Headless Website Development

Purpose-built platforms that reflect your brand precisely: no theme constraints, no approximations.

  • React Component Architecture

    Your design ships exactly as built, with no theme constraints and no gap between what was designed and what users see.

  • CMS & API Integration

    Your team manages content independently after launch, with no developer dependency for day-to-day updates.

  • Performance by Architecture

    Pages load fast by default. Performance is baked into the architecture from day one, not patched in later.

  • Structured for Search

    SEO teams get real leverage: clean semantic output and structured content models built in, not bolted on.

Commerce & Platform Integration

Connecting commerce, content and application layers into one coherent platform: the connective tissue, engineered properly.

  • Headless Commerce Platforms

    Your commerce layer and frontend evolve independently. Change your storefront without touching your commerce infrastructure.

  • Conversion-Focused Storefronts

    Buyer journeys built around your brand and your customers, not constrained by what a theme permits.

  • Omnichannel Commerce

    One content layer, consistent experience everywhere: web, mobile, and in-store without duplication.

  • Scalable Without a Rebuild

    New markets, traffic spikes, new integrations: absorbed cleanly without rearchitecting what's already working.

API-First Architecture

Who You'd Be Working With

A structured engineering team, not a freelancer collective

Headless projects fail on ownership more often than on technology. You get a named team, direct access to the engineers building your platform, and someone accountable for the architecture decision.

We work as an extension of your team where you already have technical leadership, and take full ownership of the technical direction where you don't.

Why work with Code Pros for headless?

  1. 01

    Architecture Ownership

    We make the stack decision with you, choosing components that fit your scale, team, and editorial workflow, not whatever is easiest to implement.

  2. 02

    Performance by Default

    Sub-second load times are an outcome of how we build, not a post-launch optimisation pass. Gabbinbar hit 90+ Lighthouse on day one.

  3. 03

    Clean Integrations

    APIs, CMS layers, and third-party services wired so your team can manage content and the platform can evolve without re-engineering the core.

  4. 04

    Built to Last

    We document, we hand over properly, and we don't build things only we can maintain. The platform should outlast the engagement.

  5. 05

    Active Partnership

    We stay on after launch. Gabbinbar and our other headless clients continue to grow with us as their platform evolves.

FAQ

Questions teams ask us

What should we look for in a headless development company?

Ask who owns the architecture decision. Plenty of teams can assemble a Next.js frontend against a CMS; far fewer will tell you when headless is the wrong call for your situation. Ask to see a content model they designed, not just a site they built: the model is where headless projects succeed or fail. And confirm who supports the platform six months after launch.

Which stack do you build on, and why?

Next.js and React on the frontend, DatoCMS as the content layer, for most builds. Next.js gives per-page control over rendering strategy; DatoCMS gives editors structured control without touching the frontend. We choose components around your scale, team and editorial workflow, not whatever is quickest for us to implement.

Can you work with our existing CMS or design team?

Yes. We regularly build frontends against a CMS a client has already committed to, and work alongside in-house or external design teams. If we think the existing CMS will constrain you, we will say so and explain the trade-off, but it is your decision, and we will build well either way.

How long does a headless platform build take?

Typically 8 to 16 weeks depending on complexity and content model scope. Gabbinbar Homestead, a full custom Next.js and DatoCMS build with a purpose-built component library, was delivered in under two months. We give you a phased timeline after a discovery conversation.

Do you handle commerce as part of a headless build?

Yes, where commerce and content need to work together. For SiPhox Health we built the Shopify store and WordPress site and integrated headless pages with the shop, so the two read as one storefront. If you need a full headless commerce replatform, tell us early so we can be straight with you about fit.

What happens after launch?

We stay. Most engagements continue through improvements, scaling and ongoing technical support. Gabbinbar remains an active partner, with the platform absorbing new content needs without a rebuild. Handover includes documentation and a genuine walkthrough, not a zip file and an invoice.

Ready to build a headless platform that lasts?

Whether you’re migrating from a legacy CMS or starting from scratch, we’ll help you architect and build a headless platform that performs, scales, and stays maintainable over time.
