How can a developer differentiate between XM Cloud Components and Headless SXA Components?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

XM Cloud Components provide a low-code or no-code solution for building components, allowing for the consumption of data from various sources without extensive coding. On the other hand, Headless SXA Components are designed for developers to code and consume data, typically from the same data sources, offering a more hands-on approach to component creation.
