Building a Modern Frontend with a Legacy Backend
When leading spa booking agency, SpaSeekers, reached out to Attach Digital looking to build a new site, they knew they wanted to keep their CMS. While this saved a lot of backend development work and data migration work, it did introduce new challenges into the build.
In their talk, Tom and Jon will describe their experience building SpaSeekers’s new site including how they leveraged the GraphQL API to connect a legacy CMS and Gatsby V4’s Deferred Static Generation (DSG) to reduce build times while ensuring frontend performance where it matters most.
