Why you should go headless with your knowledge learning portal

Post by on May 18th, 2022

Well its easy - In an ever-changing world with dynamic demands, going headless allows you to always have your hand on the wheel as the world changes around you. This at a high level is what headless does.

Independent of these, there is always the idea that knowledge content creation is a dynamic work and from there taking it to your learning portals is work in itself.

What can a headless knowledge content infrastructure platform do for me & my company?

First in foremost, headless will save you the work of doing all the nook and crook work of setting up knowledge content in storage systems, etc., and then setting it up to be viewed in your learning portal. It will save you from signing up for a platform that is focused on solving a subset of your imagination in an opinionated way.

A headless platform separates any forced visual interface builder and you

It's built to be built on in a way audiences don't know it exists (it's you and your brand only) The tooling is built in a way where everything is programmatic, hence you have a developer velocity-focused platform along with non-developer content editing tools.

It's the future, it scales to meet all types of use-cases. The current tooling for creating a learning experience is in the multitudes, but all share a foundational piece of making knowledge content available to their audiences.

Knowledge content is dynamic and for majority of companies it revolves around product education, partner certification, product field skills education, etc.

All these always come in one shape, there's a medium of knowledge transmissions

There's a method of transmission for these mediums

  • The internet offers for these mediums the file types of video, audio, and general files
  • Our learning experiences are built with these value-added features like personalization and acquisition engines etc.
  • All these will not be easily found in platforms if the choices are made for you without considering how your current systems work. Headless doesn't make those choices for you but doesn't force it as the only option for you. Learnir deployed an industry-standard learning experience template that can go as many places as wanted, changed to suit whatever use-case our customers have without any changes on the experience of Learnir console.
  • Learnir does the above and more, the goal is to give you a simple panel from which you do all your content creation.
  • Then on publish, your content is accessible via an API and a simple SDK.
  • This takes away 70% of the continuous work needed to build and manage your learning portal.

Tangible and Intangible savings across the many inputs required to create a learning portal.

Any changes you make quickly reflect in all places and allow your developer to work native to his/her workflow, in turn not having to go back and forth to make things happen.
