tedious VS Strapi

SQL Server does not support IAM database authentication, so we can only use built-in password authentication. Notice that we also have to pass a dummy server property when creating a connection pool. This is due to a bug in the tedious driver, which always requires the server property, even though it is not used when a custom connection builder is provided.

A quick search gave me these: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/connect/node-js/node-js-driver-for-sql-server?view=sql-server-ver16 or https://github.com/tediousjs/tedious

Strapi is one of the most popular headless CMS platforms and is widely adopted by e-learning providers, including a popular platform for artists and designers - Learn Squared. Its extensive capabilities make it an ideal choice for managing diverse educational content types, such as videos, quizzes, and interactive lessons. With Strapi, content delivery is streamlined, allowing platforms to easily organize and distribute materials across various devices and user interfaces. The flexibility in content management helps e-learning platforms efficiently handle large volumes of educational content, ensuring that users have seamless access to high-quality learning resources.

Creating an application that requires a strong backend and a slick mobile frontend can be challenging when you are a mobile developer who has minimal backend development knowledge. Also, setting up a backend server, database, securing, and scaling can consume much of the productive time used in development. This is where Strapi comes in, providing headless backend service and helping you spin up a backend faster, allowing focus on building and launching apps faster.
