Strapi Open Source Headless CMS for Custom Content APIs

Strapi is a JavaScript and TypeScript headless CMS that helps teams model content once and publish it through REST or GraphQL APIs. It fits AI and automation workflows that need an extensible admin UI, custom content types, role-based access controls, and self-hosted deployment options.
