Strapi
Open-Source Headless CMS for Developers
Strapi is a free, open-source headless CMS that gives developers freedom to build customizable APIs and manage content anywhere.
What is Strapi
Strapi is an open-source headless CMS built with Node.js that delivers content through APIs instead of traditional web pages. Think of it as a smart backend system that stores and manages your content, then sends it anywhere you need through REST or GraphQL APIs.
The main difference from traditional systems like WordPress is flexibility. Instead of forcing you to use specific templates, Strapi lets you build exactly what you need. You control everything: the database, the content structure, and how it all works together. Each project starts with built-in features like user management, permissions, and content organization.
Founded in 2015, Strapi has become popular with over 60,000 stars on GitHub and millions of downloads. You can host it yourself on your own servers or use Strapi Cloud for managed hosting, making it perfect for any project size.
