API creation made simple, secure and fast.
The most advanced open-source headless CMS to build powerful APIs with no effort.
If you are looking for the Strapi code, please see the Strapi Monorepo. The present repository is only for the official Strapi documentation hosted at docs.strapi.io. Blog articles hosted at strapi.io/blog and community content are not covered by the present repository either.
Strapi is a free and open-source headless CMS that delivers your content anywhere you need.
- Keep control over your data. With Strapi, you know where your data is stored, and you keep full control at all times.
- Self-hosted. You can host and scale Strapi projects the way you want. You can choose any hosting platform you want: AWS, Netlify, Heroku, a VPS, or a dedicated server. You can scale as you grow, 100% independent.
- Database agnostic. You can choose the database you prefer. Strapi works with SQL databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and SQLite.
- Customizable. You can quickly build your logic by fully customizing APIs, routes, or plugins to fit your needs perfectly.
