Fast Time-to-Market and low TCO with an API-first approach.
The API-first approach is a software development methodology that prioritizes APIs as the foundation of an application, rather than treating them as an afterthought. This approach involves designing and developing APIs before writing any other code. We’ve made everything for a world connected by APIs, so the commercetools APIs are extensive, functional, streamlined, and very well documented, allowing you to dive right into creating a commerce experience.

Frequently asked questions
Generally a robust REST API boils down to having good standardization, able to work with transmitting data consistently and reliably; while also being able to work with high workloads with concurrent input/output and other APIs in the picture.
GraphQL is a layer that sits on top of APIs; it complements rather than replaces APIs. GraphQL saves time by giving developers just the data they need, to reduce server usage with fewer API calls and improve performance of your applications.
