Summary

Strapi offers a streamlined way to create full-stack applications using its CLI tool, which allows users to quickly set up a monorepo with both frontend and backend components. Users can initiate projects using either the "yarn" or "npx" commands to connect a Strapi starter with a template, creating applications with technologies like Next.js, Gatsby, and others. The starter repositories need to include a "starter.json" file and a "starter" directory to facilitate the process. While Strapi has decided to focus on maintaining a single Next.js Starter due to resource constraints, they encourage users to explore and develop their own starters using the provided structure. The CLI automatically installs dependencies and runs the project, enabling users to access both the backend and frontend in their browser seamlessly. Users are also invited to share their projects and provide feedback to help expand the starter catalog.
