## What is a headless frontend for Emporix?
A headless frontend for Emporix is the buyer-facing layer of a B2B composable stack. Emporix provides the commerce engine with products, customer hierarchies, quote requests, approval workflows, and multi-merchant. The frontend connects via the Emporix API and can be designed freely. Unlike monolithic B2B platforms, a frontend for Emporix is always required, not optional.
[Book a strategy call](https://www.laioutr.com/en/contact)
### 1. The backend stays Emporix
The Emporix commerce engine continues to manage products, customer hierarchies, quote requests, approval workflows, tiered pricing, and multi-merchant logic. The Emporix dashboard stays in use unchanged.
### 2. The frontend is chosen
Four options are available: Vue.js reference templates (open source from Emporix as a starting aid), a custom build (Next.js or Nuxt), Alokai (formerly Vue Storefront) with an Emporix connection, or an Agentic Frontend Management Platform like Laioutr.
### 3. Data flows via API in real time
No data duplication, no sync conflicts. Laioutr talks directly to the Emporix API, including multi-tenant, multi-merchant, and B2B-specific endpoints.
OPTIONS
## Which frontend options exist for Emporix?
Emporix doesn't ship an official frontend product. So the frontend question comes up early in every composable Emporix project. Four options are established in the market. Here's where each one pays off.
[Book a strategy call](https://www.laioutr.com/en/contact)
### 1. Vue.js Reference Templates (open source)
Emporix provides reference templates on GitHub, based on Vue.js, as a starting aid for custom builds. No official product, no roadmap, no enterprise support. Sensible as a learning resource or starting point for an in-house engineering team.
### 2. Custom build (Next.js or Nuxt)
Maximum control, highest effort. A six- to twelve-month build phase plus ongoing maintenance by an in-house React or Vue team. Sensible when frontend engineering is the strategic core competency and highly specific B2B workflows are needed.
### 3. Alokai (formerly Vue Storefront) with Emporix integration
A frontend framework with a possible Emporix connection. Active community, project-dependent integration effort, and Vue know-how needed in the team. Sensible when an open-source stack is strategic and Vue expertise is in-house.
### 4. Laioutr
An Agentic Frontend Management Platform with a visual builder, 70+ components including B2B building blocks, multi-backend support, and EU hosting as an add-on. Fastest time-to-launch, lowest learning curve, B2B features out of the box. Sensible when go-live needs to be fast and backend optionality should stay open.
USE CASES
## What teams build with Laioutr for Emporix
Laioutr is built for B2B composable setups that need to change fast. From the customer-hierarchy portal to the multi-merchant marketplace.
[Book a strategy call](https://www.laioutr.com/en/contact)
### B2B portals with Customer Hierarchies and Approval Workflows
Emporix Customer Hierarchies, Account Trees, Approval Workflows. Laioutr calls the Emporix API directly and renders customer-group-specific assortments, Tiered Pricing, and approval frontends.
### Multi-merchant marketplaces on an Emporix backend
Emporix Multi-Merchant Engine plus Laioutr frontend: multiple sellers on one storefront, each with their own assortments, their own prices, and a unified checkout.
### Configurator-driven PDPs for industrial goods
Complex product configuration with pricing logic, bills of materials, variant selection. State management at the component level, price calculation via the Emporix API.
### Quote-to-cash frontends with the Emporix Quote Engine
B2B buyers request quotes, negotiate, approve, order. Laioutr components render every step of the quote-to-cash flow, driven by the Emporix Quote API.
### Replatforming from Reference Templates or a custom build to Laioutr
An existing frontend stack on Vue Reference Templates or a custom Next.js build is to be replaced without touching the Emporix backend. Phased migration.
### Greenfield B2B storefronts on new Emporix projects
A new Emporix project, a fresh start. With Themes and the component library, the storefront goes live in weeks instead of months invested in a custom build.
Laioutr vs. custom build for Emporix
## Headless frontend for Emporix: Laioutr or custom build?
Emporix has no official frontend product, only open-source Vue reference templates as a starting aid. So the most common frontend decision is: a custom build in Next.js or Nuxt, or an Agentic Frontend Management Platform like Laioutr. A custom build gives maximum control and costs a six- to twelve-month build phase plus ongoing maintenance. Laioutr delivers Studio and 70+ components including B2B building blocks in the plan, EU hosting as an add-on, and full code extensibility.

CUSTOM BUILD
### When a custom build is the right choice
A dedicated React or Vue team with Emporix API experience and at least three engineers is in place. Extremely specialized frontends are planned, with logic that cannot be represented in a component library. Frontend engineering is a strategic core competency. Classic use case: an industrial goods manufacturer with complex configurators and its own frontend team.
LAIOUTR
### When Laioutr is the right choice
Go-live should take weeks instead of months, B2B standard features such as quote-to-cash and approval workflows should be available without a custom build, several brands or multi-merchant setups are in operation, and backend optionality should stay open. Classic use case: a mid-market or enterprise B2B brand on Emporix that wants to scale without a large engineering investment.

FAQ
## Frequently asked questions about headless for Emporix
Does Laioutr work with the Emporix Commerce Engine?
Yes. Laioutr connects via the official Emporix API and supports all standard operations, including multi-tenant, multi-merchant, Customer Hierarchies, Quote Engine, and Approval Workflows. The integration is fully API-based, no backend plugins required.
How is Laioutr different from a custom build?
A custom build typically means a six- to twelve-month engineering investment plus ongoing maintenance by an in-house React or Vue team. Laioutr delivers Studio and 70+ components in the plan, with edge hosting available as an add-on. Time-to-launch drops from months to weeks, and the total cost of ownership is typically well below.
Can we use Emporix Customer Hierarchies in Laioutr components?
Yes. Customer Hierarchies are served via the Emporix API and rendered in Laioutr B2B components. We support Account Trees, sub-accounts, customer-group-specific prices, and approval frontends.
How does Laioutr integrate the Emporix Quote Engine?
The Quote Engine is addressed via the official Emporix Quote API. Laioutr components render the full quote-to-cash flow: Quote Request, negotiation, approval, conversion to order. Custom workflows are extensible.
Does Laioutr work with Emporix Multi-Merchant?
Yes. Emporix Multi-Merchant is natively supported in Laioutr. Assortments, prices, and branding elements can be configured per merchant, while checkout runs uniformly.
Is Laioutr registered with the MACH Alliance?
Laioutr is in the onboarding process with the MACH Alliance.
How long does a migration from a custom build to Laioutr take?
A pilot is usually live within 14 days, and the median migration takes under 14 days. Multi-merchant setups or complex B2B workflows take correspondingly longer. Founder-led migration is standard, not an extra.
How does Laioutr's pricing compare to an in-house build?
Laioutr works with transparent SaaS plans based on traffic and features, with hosting and add-ons added separately. The total cost of ownership is typically below a custom build, because components and editor are included in the plan. The [commerce pricing](https://www.laioutr.com/en/pricing/commerce) page gives an overview.
Can we switch backends later without rebuilding the frontend?
Yes. Laioutr is backend-agnostic. Switching from Emporix to commercetools, Shopware, Shopify, or another backend means reconfiguring an API connection, not rebuilding the frontend.
Is the solution BFSG- and GDPR-compliant?
Yes. EU hosting is available, with further regions on request, GDPR-compliant out of the box and with regional data residency. On top come EU standard contractual clauses, German-language support, and WCAG 3.0 and the BFSG (the German Accessibility Reinforcement Act, binding since 2025) in the component standard.
How does Laioutr handle B2B approval workflows?
Approval Workflows are driven via the Emporix API and rendered in Laioutr components. Multi-level approvals, hierarchy-based limits, and notification flows can all be configured.

Laioutr delivers Studio and 70+ components in the plan, with edge hosting available as an add-on. Time-to-launch drops from months to weeks, and the total cost of ownership is typically well below.
