Drupal with Next.js front ends
Building a Next.js front end on Drupal with the Next.js for Drupal project: incremental static regeneration, inline preview for editors, several Next.js sites from one Drupal and hosting the front end.
Headless and decoupled Drupal
Using Drupal as a content API for separate front ends: Next.js and other frameworks, JSON:API customization, authentication, routing, images and previews for decoupled builds.
Customizing the Drupal JSON:API with JSON:API Extras
Shaping the zero-configuration JSON:API for consumers: renaming and disabling resources and fields, path prefixes, and versioning concerns for long-lived clients.
Authenticating decoupled Drupal clients with Simple OAuth
Securing API access for front ends and apps with OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect through Simple OAuth: grants per client type, scopes, token lifetimes and the 5.x to 6.x upgrade caution.
Routing and menus in decoupled Drupal
Resolving path aliases and redirects with Decoupled Router and exposing menus with JSON:API Menu Items, so editors keep control of URLs and navigation in a headless build.
Images in decoupled Drupal with Consumer Image Styles
Delivering responsive image derivatives to headless front ends through JSON:API with Consumer Image Styles, and CDN caching for image URLs.
Drupal as a content backend for mobile apps
Serving iOS and Android apps from Drupal's APIs: authentication, offline caching, push of content updates, and API performance with Subrequests and caching.
Progressively decoupled Drupal
Embedding JavaScript applications inside Drupal-rendered pages instead of going fully headless, keeping Drupal's layout, SEO and editorial tools while adding interactive components.
