Run Magento or Adobe Commerce as the commerce engine and deliver the storefront with a separate frontend — Next.js, a PWA or a native mobile app — connected through GraphQL. We build headless projects when they genuinely fit, and we will tell you when a Hyvä storefront would deliver the same results for less.
In a headless setup, Magento handles catalogue, pricing, cart, checkout logic, customers and orders, and exposes them through GraphQL and REST APIs. A separate frontend application renders the experience and calls those APIs. The same backend can serve a website, a mobile app, in-store screens and marketplaces.
Headless gives frontend teams full freedom and makes sense when you need several channels, a content-heavy experience combined with a CMS, or a JavaScript team that already works in React. It also adds cost: two applications to build, host and maintain, and features such as Page Builder, layered navigation or third-party extensions need extra work to appear on the frontend.
For many single-storefront merchants, Hyvä now delivers comparable speed with much lower complexity. We help you decide with a clear comparison of cost, team and roadmap.
Backend APIs, frontend applications or both.
Assessment, architecture and roadmap: rendering strategy, caching, CMS choice, hosting and team.
New GraphQL queries, mutations and resolvers for custom data and B2B features, with caching and authorisation.
React storefronts on Next.js with server-side rendering and static generation for SEO and speed.
Magento APIs prepared for iOS and Android apps, including authentication, push-ready events and app-specific endpoints.
Contentful, Storyblok or other headless CMS for marketing pages, combined with Magento product data.
Combine Magento with search, CMS and other services behind one API using Adobe API Mesh or a custom gateway.
Both can produce very fast stores. The right choice depends on channels, team and budget.
A headless storefront is only as fast as the APIs behind it. Magento GraphQL supports HTTP GET requests for queries, which lets Varnish or Fastly cache responses for products, categories and CMS content. Custom resolvers must declare cache identities so caches are purged correctly when data changes.
On the frontend, server-side rendering or incremental static regeneration delivers HTML quickly for search engines and first visits, while client-side requests handle the cart and customer data. Images are served in modern formats at the right size, and third-party scripts are loaded after the page becomes interactive.
We measure field data from real users rather than relying only on lab tests. Interaction to Next Paint (INP) is often the hardest Core Web Vital for JavaScript-heavy frontends, so we budget JavaScript per page and test on mid-range mobile devices.
Most headless problems are backend problems: slow resolvers, missing data, cache misses. We know the Magento side deeply.
Resolvers that avoid N+1 queries, use batch loading and support GraphQL caching through Varnish or Fastly.
Server-side rendering, canonical URLs, structured data, sitemaps and redirects designed in from the start.
We list every Magento feature you use and how it will work headless, so nothing is discovered late.
Typed frontend code, generated GraphQL types and automated tests for critical flows.
We reduce risk by proving the hardest parts first.
Requirements, channels, feature inventory and a recommendation between headless and Hyvä.
Product listing, product page and cart built end to end to validate performance and data.
Custom GraphQL endpoints and caching for the data your frontend needs.
Pages, components, checkout and CMS integration in iterative sprints.
SEO checks, load testing, monitoring and a staged traffic switch.
