How Contentstack Headless CMS Works

Text Lesson20mBeginnerReleased: June 3, 2025

Managing content in Contentstack is easy and does not involve any coding. It’s a simple 3-step process.

  1. Create Content: Any user can add content, which is like filling out a form. Multiple users can work together in teams to create important content in multiple languages. Users can also use Contentstack's Visual Builder to create experiences visually and directly on a web page canvas.
  2. Preview Your Changes: After finalizing the content, users can review their changes, and can use the Timeline feature to preview content in the future, even from the perspective of what different Audiences would see in a personalized view. Contentstack is the only CMS that allows content managers to review all upcoming changes visually including published and in progress changes from the perspective of any of their audiences at any point in time.
  3. Publish Content: When ready, the content can be published on your website, mobile app, or any other channel. The same content can be reused for any platform.
