Hygraph GraphQL CMS Implementation

Understanding Hygraph as a GraphQL-Native CMS

Hygraph (formerly GraphCMS) is the world's first native GraphQL headless content management system, purpose-built for modern content delivery. Unlike traditional CMS solutions or headless systems that added GraphQL later, Hygraph was designed from the ground up with GraphQL at its core, enabling organizations to build rich, connected content experiences with unprecedented flexibility and developer productivity.
