Going headless
One of the main challenges of launching a headless storefront is the amount of time and resources it can take to get your PWA up and running. This can be especially difficult for small businesses or startups that may not have the in-house expertise or resources to handle the development work. Even for larger businesses with dedicated development teams, the process of building a PWA from scratch can be time-consuming and costly.
But that’s not all. Building and maintaining a PWA requires a solid infrastructure foundation, including servers, networks, and storage. This can be a daunting task for businesses that may not have experience with infrastructure management. And even for businesses that do have the necessary expertise, managing infrastructure can be a time-consuming and costly endeavour.
So what’s a business to do? If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the challenges of launching a headless storefront, don’t worry. A solution is available to help you get your PWA up and running faster and more efficiently: FastForward. We are launching FastForward.

The Salesforce Composable Storefront
Enter the Salesforce Composable Storefront. Salesforce designed this toolkit to make it easier for businesses to build and launch a PWA. This by providing a set of pre-built components and modules that can be customized to meet the specific needs of your business. The Salesforce PWA Kit is built on top of the popular React JavaScript library. It uses the out-of-the-box APIs of Salesforce Commerce Cloud.
One of the most significant benefits is that it takes care of all the technical details for you. You don’t need to worry about setting up servers, configuring networks, or managing infrastructure. The Managed Runtime (part of the Composable Storefront) handles everything for you, so you can focus on building a great PWA.
In addition to providing a hosting environment, the Managed Runtime also takes care of security and scaling. Your PWA will be hosted in a secure, enterprise-grade environment with all the necessary security measures in place. And if your PWA starts to see a lot of traffic, the Managed Runtime will automatically scale to meet the demand without needing you to intervene.
Overall, the Composable Storefront is a convenient and hassle-free way to host and deploy your PWA. So you can focus on what really matters – building a great experience for your customers.
