Ambitious Editorial Experiences with Headless Drupal
summary
An experimental headless editorial stack pairs Drupal 8 as a content backend with a React inline editor that supports drag‑and‑drop paragraphs, instant preview and a zero‑latency editing feel backed by JSON:API. Demos include Alexa/chatbot integrations and a store‑route AR demo. Pain points surface: JSON:API struggles with deeply nested queries and performance, collaborative locking is rudimentary, and editor UX forces extra saves. The prototype mostly works live, components are planned to be open source, and GraphQL and offline PWAs are considered as next steps.
