Core Headless CMS & Next.js 15 Integration Capabilities

  • Payload CMS 3.0 (Next.js Native) & Sanity Studio: Designing strongly typed block schemas, live visual preview (`Draft Mode`), role-based editorial workflows, and PostgreSQL/MongoDB storage adapters.
  • Directus & Strapi Enterprise API Layers: Wrapping existing PostgreSQL databases with Directus or custom Strapi v5 plugins, GraphQL/REST endpoints, and on-demand Next.js `revalidateTag` ISR cache invalidation.
  • AI Editorial Copilots Inside the CMS: Embedding one-click SEO metadata generation, automated `id`/`ms`/`ar` multilingual translation, and semantic internal-link recommendations directly inside the CMS editor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which headless CMS is best for a Next.js 15 TypeScript application?

Payload CMS 3.0 runs natively inside your Next.js App Router codebase over PostgreSQL with zero separate server overhead, while Sanity excels at real-time collaborative GROQ content lakes and Directus is ideal when layering a CMS directly over an existing SQL schema.
