GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Jan. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- JavaScript is the most popular programming language, and it's used by almost every website online. Now, JavaScript developers have Payload - a new, modern, and powerful tool to help them kickstart their projects.

Payload is a "headless" CMS. The headless CMS concept has skyrocketed in popularity over the past few years. They allow you to edit and publish content in one place, but use your content from any number of devices—including websites, mobile apps, smart TVs, wearables, etc. They don't place restrictions on how developers build their apps and focus solely on managing and delivering content.

Payload was built to deliver the JavaScript community a silver-bullet content management solution. Although it's not the first JavaScript CMS, many JS developers still use WordPress in a headless role for their CMS—which is built with PHP and initially only meant to be a blogging platform. Over time, WordPress has been retrofitted into doing more than it was ever meant to do.

• Easily customizable ReactJS Admin
• Fully self-hosted

It is supported by digital design agency TRBL.
