We had the pleasure of both speaking at and attending StrapiConf this year and would love to tell you about three of our favorite talks. For those not familiar with Strapi, it’s a popular open source headless CMS with 44k stars on GitHub. Started by a group of dedicated developers in 2015, Strapi has grown into a company with 40+ employees. The conference was an opportunity to celebrate Strapi reaching the recent milestone—Version 4.x.
Medusa is an API-first solution and open source project that enables developers to “control everything.” They push integrations to be as generic as possible which lowers the barrier to switching technologies. Medusa never does anything that other tools do better.
This new app allows you to access your Strapi Admin interface from your mobile device. Built using Flutter, it is cross platform for Android and iOS. Strapi developers are very familiar with the APIs available to access content they store in Strapi, but there are also APIs to access administration functionality. The app is a very exciting addition for the community and content creators who are on the go and need to review, update, or create content in Strapi. Saad Muhammad Mujeeb from Royal Cyber gave this informative talk including a demo—all in under 10 minutes.
To demonstrate our point, we built a website for a fictitious real estate company displaying information and photos of agents as well as properties for sale. We extended the website by adding a form for the real estate marketing team to use. They could select agents and properties, as well as customize the headline, fonts, and colors—then preview the postcard. All of this was powered by Strapi on the backend and Lob’s direct mail APIs.
