How to Build a Forum App with Next.Js and Strapi CMS

The tutorial outlines the process of building a forum website using Strapi for content management and Next.js for the front-end. It begins by setting up a Strapi project using Node.js to create and manage application content with an admin panel, and details how to create collections for posts and comments. The Next.js framework is employed to develop the front-end, featuring pages for displaying forums and posting new questions. The guide covers the integration of Axios for data fetching from Strapi and the implementation of user authentication via Google using NextAuth. It also includes instructions for setting up protected routes and handling user data for posting questions and answers. Throughout the tutorial, code snippets and explanations are provided for setting up the project structure, styling, and connecting the front-end with the Strapi back-end, culminating in a fully functional forum application with user authentication and data management capabilities.
