Reviewer scorecard
“Perfect for prototyping. I described a dashboard and had a working app in 3 minutes. Not production-ready, but unbeatable for speed-to-demo.”
“Open-source CMS you can self-host. The visual content-type builder and plugin system are well-designed.”
“Impressive demo, but the generated code is messy and you'll rewrite most of it. If you can't code, you can't fix what it breaks. Know what you're getting into.”
“For teams that need a self-hosted CMS, Strapi is the most mature open-source option. Large community.”
“As a creator who needs quick landing pages and MVPs, this is a game-changer. I built a waitlist page with email capture in under 5 minutes.”
“The admin panel is intuitive for content editors. Media library and internationalization are built in.”
