The Sitecore Water Cooler

Sitecore Hackathon is a free online community organized by community members and supported by Sitecore. Once a year, developers and business users from around the world get together to compete for 24 hours straight to build a new feature or function for the Sitecore platform. The modules and components built are then reviewed by community members and Sitecore employees and a winner is selected.

To discuss the Sitecore Hackathon, our host, Jon Price, spoke with Senior Sitecore Developer Naim Al and Joshua Hover, Director of Sitecore Project Management Operations at Americaneagle.com.

For the last few years, the content management and digital experience platform scene has changed drastically. For example, Gartner recently introduced the concept of “composable.”

Along with the topic of composable, in this episode, our host Jon Price spoke with longtime Sitecore Architect and multi-year MVP James Gregory to discuss Sitecore and what headless really means. The topic of headless has been a hot development trend lately and fits directly into the concept of composable.

Sitecore originated as, and is still technically, a headless CMS. Up until recently though, Sitecore hasn't marketed itself as a headless platform. This episode covers numerous options, including Sitecore headless services (previously known as JSS), Sitecore Experience Edge, and content as a service.
