PHP Cambridge: Headless CMS and PHP: building efficient front-end sites

The idea of the Headless CMS is becoming more and more popular in the industry and is widely seen as the next step for content management. Using the CMS as pure content management and whatever tool you want to build the front-end can give lots of flexibility and also comes with a host of advantages (and its own problems).

But why does everyone talk about JavaScript whenever Headless CMS is mentioned? What is the JAM stack and how should you be serving content to your users?

In this talk I'll cover the common issues of front-end development with a CMS, what a Headless CMS is and why it's useful for both clients and developers, our experience at Studio 24 of using WordPress as a Headless CMS and how we tackled building a progressive front-end to a Headless CMS in PHP and Symfony.
