Summary

Strapi is a Headless CMS designed for composable and flexible content management that reconciles the needs of various stakeholders. It aims to provide an efficient content publication workflow with a refined dashboard, suitable for Content Managers who want to move from traditional CMS to a Headless CMS like Strapi. The onboarding process can be improved by modifying codebase or leveraging patch-package, avoiding issues with customization due to the removal of the "extension" system in v4. A well-designed content editing workflow should have four steps: preview and save, publish, add dynamic zones, and choose components to assemble the page. Strapi offers various extensions that can enhance a collaborative experience, but it's essential for developers to evaluate plugin requests critically and consider cleaning up their stack by adding only necessary features.
