Headless CMS seem to be an interesting approach. I've had some success lately with Sanity [0] which I enjoy [1] a bit more than other Headless CMS because of their data lake and CDN.

Just this week-end, a friend had an idea that he wanted to make a list of healthy products. I suggested Google Sheets as a starting 'database' and see where we move from there. He had some issues with inserting images to it though so I just created a sanity.io project. I think we were good to go in about 20 minutes with both a backend admin area and an API.

The next steps are to:

A - Build mobile app

B - Actually move the data from Sanity to a self hosted CDN
