Strapi is the market leader among open-source headless CMSs. You define content types via the admin UI (or code), Strapi generates the database tables and REST/GraphQL endpoints automatically. Most flexibility for developers; clean admin UI for content teams.
At Virtual Computing, Strapi runs on Node.js with a dedicated Postgres database. We manage updates (Strapi releases weekly) and connect your own domain. SSL and backups standard.
Strapi is a strong choice when you start a new project: you first build the schema in Strapi, and your front-end (Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, React Native) consumes via the auto-generated API. Time-to-MVP is a fraction of traditional CMS work.
Strapi is ideal for
Greenfield headless projects
New website or app where you build the CMS and front-end from scratch. Strapi is often the first choice.
Multi-language sites
Strapi's internationalisation plugin: one entry, translations per field. API serves per locale.
API-first product development
Build a product that delivers content or data via API to customers. Strapi's role-based access and API tokens help.
Marketing sites with content-rich pages
Components (reusable blocks) and Dynamic Zones let content teams build rich pages without developer input.
Included in every deployment
Schema-first with visual builder
Define content types in the UI — Strapi creates DB tables and API endpoints automatically.
REST + GraphQL
Both standard. Choose per type which endpoints are public.
Plugin system
Official and community plugins: SEO, email, upload providers, i18n, RBAC. Or build your own.
Custom controllers and services
For business logic that can't be done via config: write your own Node.js code in the Strapi convention.
Media library + uploads
Drag-and-drop, image cropping, video thumbs, doc previews. S3/CloudFront supported.
Webhooks + events
Trigger external systems on content changes. Or listen to events in your own code for automations.
