Building a Personal Habit Tracker App with Custom DB Queries in Strapi

The text is a comprehensive tutorial on building a personal habit tracker application using Strapi, a headless CMS, and React with the MUI library. Initially, it guides users through setting up the Strapi backend to store data and create collection types for habits and logs. It then transitions to setting up the React frontend, where users create forms and components to add and display habits, utilizing libraries like date-fns and axios for handling dates and HTTP requests. The tutorial highlights the flexibility of Strapi's Query Engine API over its REST API, allowing for custom database queries to efficiently fetch and display data, such as checking off completed habits. Throughout, the tutorial emphasizes Strapi's capabilities in managing complex queries and bulk operations, culminating in a working habit tracker that connects seamlessly between the backend and frontend.
