In a headless WooCommerce setup (where frontend and backend are separate), how should data be managed and delivered to different frontends like websites, mobile apps, or PWAs?
In a headless WooCommerce setup, WooCommerce works as the backend for managing products, orders, customers, and inventory, while the frontends (website, mobile app, or PWA) fetch data through APIs.
Typically, developers use the WooCommerce REST API or GraphQL to deliver product and store data to different frontends. Each frontend application (like a React website or mobile app) requests the required data from these APIs and displays it independently.
To improve performance and scalability, many setups also include an API middleware layer and caching (Redis/CDN). Webhooks can be used to sync updates such as new orders or stock changes across all frontends in real time.
