 ## WordPress Site

 ### What is Headless?
 
-Up until recently, WordPress was used to build monolithic websites. Meaning, the frontend and backend were both tightly coupled via themes and plugins. This has started to change recently with the popularity of Headless.
+Up until recently, WordPress could only build monolithic websites. Meaning, the frontend, and backend were both tightly coupled via themes and plugins. Headless shifts away from a monolithic approach.
 
-Headless is a term used when the frontend is detached from the backend. In a more specific sense, when WordPress is used as a backend (headless CMS), while the frontend uses a more modern framework, like React.

 ### Setting up WordPress for Headless
 
 To setup WordPress for headless, follow the [Setting Up WordPress guide for Faust.js](./setup-faustjs#installing-plugins-on-wordpress)
 
 ## Languages & Tooling
 
-If you are coming from a WordPress background, you may be familiar with doing everything in [PHP](https://php.net).

 The frontend landscape has embraced JavaScript/TypeScript as the languages of choice, so it will be helpful to know what these languages are and how they play a part in developing headless WordPress sites.
 
 ### JavaScript
 
 To quote [MDN Web Docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/JavaScript/First_steps/What_is_JavaScript):
 
-> JavaScript is a scripting or programming language that allows you to implement complex features on web pages — every time a web page does more than just sit there and display static information for you to look at — displaying timely content updates, interactive maps, animated 2D/3D graphics, scrolling video jukeboxes, etc. — you can bet that JavaScript is probably involved. It is the third layer of the layer cake of standard web technologies, two of which (HTML and CSS) we have covered in much more detail in other parts of the Learning Area.

 ### TypeScript
 
-JavaScript is what is known as a loosely typed language. This means that you don't have to specify the type of a variable. While this is convenient, it can also lead to bugs and errors that you may not know about until runtime.

 ## Node.js & NPM
 
 In the world of JavaScript development, you may see a lot of talk about Node.js and NPM.
 
 ### Node.js
 
-Node.js is a JavaScript runtime that allows you to run JavaScript on the server. You may see this in JavaScript frameworks like [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/), which provide server side functionality.

+React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It is component-based, meaning that you can break down your UI into smaller components to reuse.
 
 React is currently the world's most popular JavaScript framework, with about 60% of the market share. With this level of popularity comes plenty of great resources to learn React. We recommend viewing the [React docs to get started.](https://reactjs.org/docs/getting-started.html)
 
 ## GraphQL
 
 GraphQL is a query language for APIs. In Faust.js, it is used to define the data schema of WordPress.
 
-The key distinction between GraphQL and a REST API, is that GraphQL is a query language, meaning that you can ask for as much or as little of the data as you want. Whereas with REST, you are stuck with a fixed set of data.

-For an example, I may want to request a list of WordPress posts, but I only want the title and content. In a GraphQL API, I can specify these two fields as the only pieces of data to fetch, and I'll get *just* that data back. In a REST API, I am unable to specify that level of granularity, and I'm left with requesting more data than I may need.
