## Questions

- What is Hygraph?Headless CMS

- Who is Hygraph geared towards?Anyone that wants a backend as a service (BaaS??) 🤣 baas 🐑

- Why is Hygraph different from all the other CMS's out there? Content based permissions
- Environments if you want to work on changing the schema you can work on isolated instances of the project
- Granular permissions, content based permissions will be out soon along with scheduled publishing.
- Management SDK (so you're not building out the schema in the UI)

- Is Hygraph a GraphQL only CMS?Yes

- Where would you send someone to get started learning Hygraph?Depending on what learner you are, I found Jamie's intro video really useful for me when starting out building a project the last two weeks: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ylmd737tw5w](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ylmd737tw5w)
- There's also the Hygraph blog and the GitHub examples repo: [https://github.com/hygraph/hygraph-examples](https://github.com/hygraph/hygraph-examples)
