FAQ
What is Directus and why should I use it?
Directus is an open-source headless CMS that sits on top of any SQL database and automatically generates a REST and GraphQL API. Unlike WordPress or traditional CMSs, Directus gives your developers full control over the data structure while giving your content team a beautiful, easy-to-use admin pan
What's the difference between Directus and Strapi or WordPress headless?
Directus is unique because it wraps your existing database — it doesn't impose its own schema. This makes it far more flexible than Strapi and much more developer-friendly than WordPress headless. It also has a more polished admin UI, built-in file management, and a powerful Flows automation engine
Can you integrate Directus with my existing Next.js or React project?
Absolutely. I'll set up the official Directus JS SDK in your project, configure authentication, create TypeScript types from your schema, and build data-fetching utilities for SSR, SSG, or ISR depending on your needs. You'll be fetching live content from Directus in your frontend the same day.
Which database does Directus support?
Directus supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, MS SQL, OracleDB, and CockroachDB. I recommend PostgreSQL for production — it's fast, reliable, and free. I'll set everything up for you.
Where can you deploy Directus?
I can deploy Directus anywhere — your own VPS (DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Linode), Railway, Render, Fly.io, AWS EC2, or any Docker-compatible host. I'll set up SSL, domain, and environment variables so it's production-ready from day one.
What are Directus Flows and how can they help my business?
Directus Flows is a built-in automation engine (similar to n8n or Zapier, but native to Directus). You can trigger flows when content is created, updated, or deleted — for example, sending a Slack notification when a new article is published, calling an external webhook, or sending automated emails.
Do I need any technical knowledge to use Directus after you set it up?
No. Directus is designed to be used by non-technical content editors. After delivery, I'll send you a screen recording walkthrough showing exactly how to create, edit, and manage your content. Your team will be self-sufficient from day one.
Can you migrate my content from WordPress or another CMS to Directus?
Yes, I offer content migration as an add-on. I can migrate posts, pages, images, and custom fields from WordPress, Strapi, Contentful, or any other CMS into Directus. Please message me before ordering to discuss the scope of the migration.
Will I get the source code?
Yes, always. You'll receive the full source code via GitHub (private repo) or as a ZIP file — your choice. I also provide a .env.example file, setup instructions, and a README.
Can you connect Directus to n8n, Make, or Zapier for automation?
Yes — this is actually one of my specialties. Directus webhooks + n8n is a very powerful combo. I can connect your Directus instance to n8n workflows, Make.com, Zapier, Slack, or any third-party service via webhook or REST API. This is included in the Standard and Premium packages.
