Headless content that brings editorial and development together

Strapi suits companies that want to maintain structured content and publish it across multiple channels. Your developer models content types, components, and flexible content areas so editors can work independently without overloading the frontend with ad-hoc cases.

REST and GraphQL APIs connect Strapi with: Next.js, mobile apps, shops, or internal portals. Where standard features aren't enough, we build custom controllers, services, middleware, and plugins — as maintainable, understandable code instead of brittle workarounds.

Operation and governance are included too: roles and permissions, approvals, media, localization, backups, monitoring, and updates. That turns a quickly set up CMS into a resilient content backend that marketing and IT can use long term.

  • Content types, components, and flexible content areas
  • REST and GraphQL APIs
  • Next.js, React, and mobile frontends
  • Custom controllers, services, and plugins
  • Roles, permissions, approvals, and localization

Typical mandates: Corporate websites, content portals, product catalogs, multi-brand platforms.

Tools: Strapi, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Next.js

Quick explanation

What is Strapi?

Strapi is an open-source content framework based on Node.js and TypeScript. Teams define structured content and get APIs for websites, apps, and other channels. The system can be self-hosted or used as a cloud offering. Extensibility is crucial: data model, backend logic, admin UI, and integrations remain under your control.

Expertise

What a senior Strapi developer brings to your team

Good Strapi projects don't start with fields; they start with a content model that's still understandable in two years.

01

Systematic content model

A senior translates pages, products, and editorial workflows into reusable content types and components. Relations, validation, and naming conventions remain traceable even as scope grows.

02

APIs and backend logic

REST and GraphQL are not just enabled but properly secured and extended. Custom controllers, services, and middleware encapsulate endpoints, calculations, or external data sources cleanly.

03

Editorial interface

Editors need clear fields, previews, and explicit states. We configure the admin interface so content can be maintained quickly and errors are caught before publication.

04

Roles and permissions

Public APIs, internal teams, and external agencies receive only the rights they truly need. Permission models are documented and tested with realistic roles.

05

Integrations and migration

Existing content, PIM, DAM, CRM, or translation services are connected via robust import and synchronization processes — with test runs, error logs, and repeatability.

06

Operations and updates

Deployment, database migrations, media storage, backups, and monitoring are part of the solution. Updates are scheduled and tested first in a staging environment.

Typical situations

When a dedicated Strapi developer makes sense

01

Marketing waiting on development

Does every new landing page require a ticket? We create flexible content blocks that let editors publish new pages themselves within clear guardrails.

02

Multiple channels need the same content

Website, app, and customer portal should use a single source. Strapi delivers structured content via stable APIs instead of copies and exports.

03

The existing CMS can’t be extended

Custom approvals, product data, or integrations don’t fit the standard system. We extend Strapi selectively without bending the core unnecessarily.

Risk under control

Less risk for your Strapi project

Technical freedom requires clear guardrails. We establish them early.

Flexible content models

Too many custom fields slow down editorial work and the frontend. We define reusable building blocks, clear relationships, and rules for new content types.

Unchecked API permissions

Public roles must never accidentally see internal content. Permissions are built on the principle of least privilege and are checked automatically.

Updates without a plan

Plugins and custom extensions can complicate updates. We keep changes lean, document dependencies, and test upgrades reproducibly.

Migration with no way back

Content migrations require dry runs, counts, and a clear cutover. This preserves URLs, relationships, media, and publication status.

Transparency

You'll see that every week.

Not just completed tickets: we make quality, risks, and operations visible.

We make these metrics visible

  • Error rate and response times of content APIs
  • Open editorial blockers and approvals
  • Status of updates and dependencies
  • Import and synchronization errors

Business case

What a dedicated Strapi developer delivers economically

A dedicated Strapi developer pays off when marketing needs to publish faster without losing technical control. Reusable content blocks speed up new pages, a single API reduces duplicate maintenance, and well-planned integrations avoid manual handoffs. The result is fewer tickets and a content foundation that can support multiple products.

The first two weeks

How your Strapi developer starts

Analysis, first delivery, clear plan. Our working approach is also described at How we work.

01

Understand content and roles

We record content types, channels, languages, approvals, and existing systems. From that, we create a clear target model.

02

Deliver initial content

A prioritized content type with API and frontend integration goes into review—including permissions and example content.

03

Plan migration and operation

You receive a plan for data migration, hosting, media, backups, updates, and other content areas.

After kickoff

The first 90 days with your Strapi developer

A typical process that we adapt to your existing codebase and roadmap.

01

Month 1: Lay the foundation

The content model, roles, development environment, and the first production API are in place. Editorial and frontend teams test together.

02

Month 2: Integrate channels

Additional content types, previews, localization, and integrations will be implemented and populated with real content.

03

Month 3: Secure operations

Migration, performance, monitoring, backups, and editorial documentation are completed for regular operation.

Example scenario

Example: A corporate group consolidates its country websites

A corporate group maintains content across multiple separate websites. Product data, contacts, and campaigns are entered repeatedly; new countries each require their own project.

A dedicated Strapi developer designs a shared content model for global and local content. Roles limit access by country; reusable components keep brand governance consistent. Next.js frontends consume content via a single API.

The editorial team can roll out campaigns faster, translations remain traceable, and IT operates a single documented content backend instead of many special solutions.

Collaboration

Hire Strapi developers: Which model fits?

For a rebuild or migration, an hour bundle with clear milestones is suitable. If multiple channels and teams are continuously developed, the monthly plan creates fixed ownership for content model, APIs, and operations.

The discovery package is suitable for an architecture and content-model workshop with an initial content type implemented. You can find all models in the Pricing table.

Straight talk

Limits: When we advise against it

If you only have a few static pages and rarely change content, a simpler system can be more economical. If a central SQL database already exists and should become the single source of truth without extra abstraction, consider Directus. For a fully code-based CMS directly in the Next.js project, Payload CMS may be a better fit.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Strapi

Is Strapi a headless CMS?

Yes. Strapi manages structured content and exposes it via REST or GraphQL APIs. You choose the frontend independently.

Can Strapi be self-hosted?

Yes. Strapi can run on your own infrastructure or in a cloud environment. Alternatively, a managed cloud offering is available.

Does Strapi work with Next.js?

Yes. Next.js and Strapi are a common combination: Strapi delivers content; Next.js renders fast, SEO-friendly pages and previews.

Can editors compose pages themselves?

Yes. Components and flexible content areas allow combining approved building blocks. We ensure that flexibility doesn’t lead to inconsistent pages.

How are roles and permissions implemented?

Permissions are defined separately for public access, editors, administrators, and technical integrations. Sensitive endpoints receive additional checks.

Can content be migrated from an old CMS?

Yes. We build repeatable importers for content, relations, and media, and verify results with counts, samples, and URL mappings.

Is Strapi suitable for multiple languages?

Yes. Multilingual content can be managed structurally. For large translation efforts, we integrate external translation workflows as needed.

Who takes care of updates and operations?

On request, the dedicated developer handles updates, deployment, monitoring, and backups with your infrastructure team.
