Strapi

Strapi is the leading open-source headless CMS. It's 100% JavaScript, fully customizable and developer-first.

This integration allows business users to build personalized digital experiences (web sites, web apps, mobile apps, etc.) by re-purposing content from your Strapi content management system. It also enables developers to use their preferred front-end tools to build these applications.

This section provides guides on how to use Uniform with Strapi.

Adding the Strapi integration to your Uniform project adds new parameter types that you can add to your Uniform Canvas components.

Prerequisites

You must have access to a Uniform team with the ability to create new projects. If you are an active customer or a partner, please get in touch with your Uniform team administrator colleague and ask for an invite.

If you are not sure or your company does not have a Uniform team, you can request a sandbox here.
