Strapi VS nocodb

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.

Strapi - Open source Node.js Headless CMS 🚀

It is great to see the number of good opensource projects in this area. Grist and NocoDB deserve mentions, although more targeted towards database management. It is also amazing that they provide so simple ways to get started (single file/electron)

Have you seen https://github.com/nocodb/nocodb? I'm not sure it supports concurrent editing, but seems like it might.

Baserow is cool. We evaluated it within our company a few months ago and eventually settled for Nocodb (https://nocodb.com/) - easy to run, more mature.

Leaptable is another Open Source framework like Airtable I saw recently with support for AI Agents. https://github.com/peterwnjenga/leaptable

That looks interesting!

I currently use NocoDB with a MariaDB database, so I can't easily switch over as Undb doesn't support MySQL as I see. But it has the feature I'm missing in NocoDB: a Calendar View which funnily NocoDB promoted on their website but doesn't have [1]. I guess I'll give it a try!
