The Best Headless CMS for React
More than a traditional CMS, Builder's Visual Headless CMS works seamlessly with React to create fast, SEO-friendly websites. The combination allows content editors to build scalable sites in minutes with fewer developer dependencies.
WHY
Builder and React?
Using Builder.io with React offers flexibility and adaptability. Decoupling the frontend from the content backend enables React developers full control to build customized user interfaces. Meanwhile, the headless CMS provides an API-based content delivery layer that can be consumed across platforms and devices. React allows for a familiar component-based approach, leveraging frontend developers' existing knowledge. The end result is performant UIs that can be quickly iterated visually.

Build using your React components
Here's an example of code that uses Builder for a component-driven page.
Quick Code Reference
builder.init()
Each project you build in Builder has a Public API key that you can use to request your Builder content. Pass your key here to tell Builder where to look.
builder.get()
Fetches your content from Builder as JSON. You can add parameters and queries to get the right result.
<BuilderComponent/>
Pass the JSON you got from builder.get() to render a Builder page or section.
Builder.registerComponent()
Register any code component in your app to Builder. Then, it can be used for drag-and-drop page building.

We love our builders
See why teams are moving and optimizing faster with Builder
One of my clients just did a demo of Builder. Wow, I’m impressed.
Drag and drop React components. Configure their props. Dynamic routes. Styling overrides. All using custom React components.
Quite slick.
TBH I haven't seen a company like this for a long time. They not only have a great commercial product but build breakthrough OS projects that move the web space into the right direction, which is even more important to me. Huge respect from me ;)
With the help of Builder, my team no longer needs to bother me again for some tasks like just updating the font size from 50px to 52px
I’m a huge fan of Builder! My team at Zapier leans on it to build a platform for the marketing team to create some of our highest touch pages, keeping in alignment with our design systems. It’s got a lot of really fantastic built-in functionality and is super easy to use! ✨
We rely on it pretty heavily at Everlane. From an engineering perspective, their integration is really well thought out, super developer friendly. From a CMS perspective, I honestly couldn’t find anything else with the same depth of tooling Builder has.
I've heard of Builder being successfully deployed for a wider range of usecases, and it works really well with Next.js
Builder, an AI-powered headless CMS, looks absolutely incredible! 🤯
Get started with Builder
Use what you already have, or build a future-proof React application
Lastly, Builder’s Visual Headless CMS can be incrementally adopted for a better user experience. You don't have to rebuild your frontend from scratch—you can build on top of what you already have in real-time. And if you decide to replatform, it's easy: content created in Builder's Visual CMS will seamlessly migrate to your new platform.
