Our First Wix Headless Website - Vibe Coded site powered by AI hosted on Wix
We have worked alongside the team at Thorne Group for years. Over that time, we’ve taken their digital presence through every major milestone of modern web tech—moving from the classic Wix Editor to Wix Studio, and now to our very first Wix Headless deployment. They love staying ahead of the curve, and watching Wix evolve alongside their business needs has made this a fantastic journey.
The New "Vibe Coding" Era
Wix has always empowered creators to explore design ideas freely. Today, that creative spirit has entered a new phase with AI.
For this latest website refresh, the Thorne Group team actually explored and built their new layout vision directly using Claude.
Here is where the magic of a modern Wix Partner agency comes in. Instead of forcing a client into a rigid standard template, we embraced their AI-generated concept. Our team stepped in to take that raw "vibe coded" front end and refine it into a fully scalable, enterprise-grade production site.
How is it possible? Claude → GitHub → Wix
By building on Wix Headless, we unlocked a developer workflow that gives us total front-end flexibility while keeping the solid Wix business tools Thorne Group already relies on. Such as email marketing, site insights, Wix automations, etc.
This is how the system works together:
Custom System Integration: We took the client's Claude layout and adapted the entire site architecture—wiring up custom forms, newsletter signups, performance tweaks, and technical SEO capabilities.
Streamlined Deployment: The front end follows a clean, modern dev pipeline; updates are pushed from GitHub straight to Wix Headless hosting.
Uncompromised Backend Management: Even with a custom AI-driven front end, the site is tied directly to the Wix engine. The Thorne Group team still logs into Wix to manage their CMS, client inquiries, and daily marketing campaigns effortlessly.
It really is the best of both worlds.
Is AI The Next Frontier for Web Designers?
Just as Wix revolutionised the web design industry years ago with drag-and-drop, AI and Headless architecture are driving the next big leap.
Web teams no longer have to choose between custom front-end freedom and effortless backend client management.
If another Wix Partner asked us whether Headless is worth exploring, our answer would be simple: Wix Headless is the ultimate foundation for any web designer or business owner who wants to embrace AI and "vibe coding" without sacrificing the power of the Wix backend.
At yourweb.nz, we make sure we stay at the forefront of these shifts.
Whether you are a business owner experimenting with AI layouts or an agency looking for technical implementation support, we are always ready to collaborate at any stage of the process.
