Headless WordPress Development for modern frontends.

We decouple WordPress from its frontend and pair it with Next.js, Nuxt or your React stack for Malaysian teams. KL, PJ and Penang brands shipped. Editors keep the WordPress they know, visitors on Maxis, TM and Celcom get a faster site, hosted on AWS Singapore or KL DataCentre.

Our approach

Decoupled for speed and scale .

Headless lets your content team keep WordPress while your frontend runs on whatever performs best. Next.js on Vercel, Nuxt on Cloudflare, a React app on your own CDN. Content syncs through REST or GraphQL.

Done right, headless gives you edge caching, faster builds, cleaner code and a smaller security surface. Done wrong, it doubles your bill. We build the architecture that pays back.

  • Next.js or Nuxt frontend wired to WP REST or WPGraphQL
  • ISR and edge caching so content updates in seconds
  • Preview mode for editors and draft workflows
Headless WordPress architecture with Next.js frontend
How it works

From monolith to headless in four steps.

A structured process that covers architecture, backend, frontend and launch. You stay informed at every stage.

01

Architecture and scoping

We map your content model, pick REST or WPGraphQL, choose frontend stack and hosting, and define preview and caching strategy. You get a written specification and a fixed quote before work begins.

02

WordPress backend setup

We configure WordPress as a pure content API. Custom post types, ACF or Gutenberg blocks, WPGraphQL schema, auth, CORS and hardening so the backend never ships HTML to your users.

03

Frontend build

WordPress engineers build your Next.js or Nuxt app from scratch. Routing, ISR, preview mode, SEO primitives and performance budgets. Clean code your team can extend.

04

Launch and handover

We deploy the frontend to the edge, tune the backend host, wire monitoring and hand over docs, a walkthrough video and editor training. Your choice of ongoing support plan.

Quality standards

Every build ships production ready .

A headless build is only done once the frontend, backend and caching all pass our internal checklist. No shortcuts.

Lighthouse 95+ score

Performance, accessibility, SEO and best practices all scored and documented on the live frontend before launch.

Core Web Vitals pass

LCP under 2.5s, CLS under 0.1, INP under 200ms. Verified on real device emulation and field data.

WCAG 2.2 AA compliant

Keyboard navigation, semantic HTML, ARIA labels and contrast checked against the latest standard.

Backend hardened

WP admin locked down, CORS tight, REST and GraphQL rate limited. Your backend stops serving HTML to the public web.

SEO parity verified

Sitemaps, JSON LD schema, Open Graph, robots and hreflang mirrored from WP to the frontend and audited before go live.

Edge cache strategy documented

ISR, on-demand revalidation and purge webhooks wired so editors see updates in seconds, not minutes.

Clean, documented code

TypeScript on the frontend, PSR on the backend, inline docs and a README your team can read.

Preview mode tested

Editors can preview drafts, scheduled posts and password-protected content on the live frontend before publish.

Backed by real QA

Two pairs of eyes on every build. Functional QA, visual QA and performance QA before handover.
