What is content first design?

Content First Design is an approach where the creation and organisation of content are prioritised before designing the layout of a website. This ensures that the design supports and enhances the content rather than dictating it. This approach is particularly effective for the public sector or large websites where content editors need control to be able to create pages from a library of components.

Starting with content helps identify the main message and goals of your website. It ensures that the design highlights and supports this content effectively.
