API-first Development with Headless WordPress

Claim is concrete: turn WordPress into an open source API platform using WPGraphQL plus Custom Post Type UI and Advanced Custom Fields to model developers with twitter github blog and languages. Demo builds a Next/Apollo front end using the Headless framework to fetch developers via GraphQL, statically generate pages with revalidate 1, and deploy on Atlas to followadev. Numbers and tooling line up, the directory works live, queries return structured JSON instead of raw HTML.
