What you'll learn
This service helps content designers understand how headless CMS platforms like Contentful work with GOV.UK-styled websites. You'll learn by doing - creating, editing, and publishing real content.
Content modeling
Learn how to structure content independently from presentation. Create content types, define fields, and build relationships between different types of content.
Publishing workflow
Practice the draft → preview → publish cycle. See how content designers can preview changes before making them live.
API integration
Understand how content is delivered from a CMS to a website via APIs. See how the same content can power multiple channels.
GOV.UK standards
Work with authentic GOV.UK Design System patterns. Learn how content structure translates to user-facing service pages.
Two ways to learn
1. Explore the demo
View working examples of service pages powered by Contentful. No setup required - just browse and see how it works.
2. Build your own
Download the project files and create your own Contentful space. This is where real learning happens - you'll set up content types, create entries, and see your content appear on your own version of the site.
