Strapi is a headless content management system (CMS) that is distributed through the JavaScript package manager, npm. As a headless CMS, it supports application programming interface (API) usage without dependence on the presentation layer, and this allows content stored in its single location to serve multiple points of consumption. The data consumption can be restricted through user roles and permissions. The data manipulation tasks, e.g. uploading files, gathering data into collections, defining relationships among collections, are accomplished by the user through Strapi’s graphical user interface (GUI). A subset of these tasks is also available through the command-line interface (CLI). Strapi compares favorably among its peers in the headless CMS landscape as an open-source JavaScript option. Some shortcomings are noteworthy, however, and these include its status as an alpha release and mixing of Strapi and database code with user data code. This presentation begins with definitions for the terms “headless” and “CMS”, moves to an outline of Strapi features, compares Strapi to its peers WordPress (with its REST API) and Cockpit, shows an example of using with its “quickstart” process, and finally examines some of Strapi’s shortcomings.
