core VS Strapi

Some libraries support ways to handle missing translations (e.g., TranslocoMissingHandler from Transloco or MissingTranslationHandler   from ngx-translate). So that's a way to find out any missing translations, but that's quite manual because you have to go over every part of the served application.

ngx-translate

It was rather painless. We are using ngx-translate which seems dead at this point but works fine in 16 (seems to have gotten a recent commit).

The problem with Angular 15 was the Ivy engine. And it wasn't fixed, maybe you're not affected. https://github.com/ngx-translate/core/issues/1185

He talks about it more here: https://github.com/ngx-translate/core/issues/783

Ngx-translate is not updated anymore. Latest version is a year old. It's still not abandoned but it seems like the developer moved on to work on Angular i18n.

Just to refer to the original docs: https://github.com/ngx-translate/core

One of the common pitfalls when using i18n are large translation files size and inability to split them in order to hide parts of your application from prying eyes. Some solutions like Angular built-in implementation are really powerful and SEO compatible but require a lot of preparation and do not support switching languages on the fly in development mode (which was causing troubles at least in version 9); other solutions like ngx-translate require you to install several packages and still don’t support splitting up a single language.

Strapi provides a centralized data managing platform. This makes it easier to organize, update, and maintain the FAQ data. It also automatically generates a RESTful API for accessing the content stored in its database.

https://prisma.io is popular as I understand it. I've been trying out https://strapi.io the last week and am thoroughly impressed.

They both do much more than build queries. One big thing both do is automate database migration calculations. Strapi goes further and gives you a CMS and admin UI on top, as well as doing a lot more of the complex query building from a json object. Both still require a fundamental understanding of the data model and SQL

As of April 2024, Strapi's GitHub repository has garnered 59.7k stars and 7.5k forks, showcasing its widespread adoption. The project has also secured a substantial $45+ million in funding, cementing its position as a prominent player in the headless CMS space.

const pages = await client.GET("/pages", { params: { query: { filters: { // @ts-ignore - openapi generated from strapi results in Record // https://github.com/strapi/strapi/issues/19644 path: { $eq: path, }, }, // @ts-ignore populate: { blocks: { populate: "*" }, }, }, }, });

On a side note. Where do all these endpoints come from? Strapi is open source. We can read the source code. All these endpoint come from the Users and permissions plugin. So, if we go to Strapi on github and browse around the files a bit eventually you will find the auth.js file that contains all of the routes. You can also find the Strapi controllers in there if you're interested.
