Prismic
Prismic is a headless Content Management System (CMS) that allows developers to create and manage content while giving content editors a visual editing experience.
Price: Freemium
Description
Prismic is a modern headless CMS that separates content from its presentation layer, giving developers the freedom to use any technology stack they prefer for the front-end. It provides a powerful API for content delivery and a user-friendly visual editor for content creators, enabling them to design and publish content without developer intervention. Prismic focuses on flexibility and scalability, making it ideal for dynamic websites, mobile apps, and multi-channel content delivery. It stands out by offering 'Slice Machine,' a unique feature that allows developers to define reusable content components (Slices) that content editors can then easily drag and drop to build pages, blending developer control with content editor autonomy, and streamlining the content creation workflow.
How to Use
1.Developers define custom content types and 'Slices' (reusable content components) using Prismic's Slice Machine.
2.Content editors use the Prismic dashboard to create new documents and build pages by selecting and arranging these pre-defined Slices.
3.Editors populate the Slices with text, images, and other media using the visual editor.
4.Once content is ready, editors publish it, and Prismic's API makes it immediately available.
5.Developers fetch the content via the API and render it on their chosen front-end framework (e.g., React, Next.js, Vue) to display on the website or application.
