A flexible content platform for managing structured content, media, roles, and publishing workflows from one place.

Gave content teams control over publishing while keeping developers free to build fast frontends and integrations.

About the Project

This headless CMS was designed for teams that need structured content management, media handling, and clean delivery APIs without locking the frontend into a fixed presentation layer.

Problem

Content teams need publishing independence, while development teams need reliable APIs and predictable content structures.

Solution

I built a headless CMS with role-based access, media management, and API delivery so content can be managed safely and shipped anywhere.

Key Features

  • Flexible content modeling
  • REST and GraphQL APIs
  • Media library with S3 integration
  • Role-based permissions
  • Webhooks and integrations

Challenges

  • Designing content models flexible enough for multiple use cases without becoming confusing.
  • Protecting editing and publishing actions with clear role permissions.

Architecture

  • Next.js admin interface for content modeling, entries, and media workflows.
  • Prisma-backed data layer with REST and GraphQL API surfaces.
  • S3 and CDN-backed media storage for scalable asset delivery.

Outcome
