There a two types of CMS systems, a traditional CMS which integrates content with technology and a ‘decoupled’ or ‘headless’ CMS, which separates the management of content from its display. Standard CMS systems generally output content to pages on the web. If your content is not on the web, then you would have had to input or pull content again into the system that displays it. With a Headless CMS this is not the case.
