Summary

The text provides a comprehensive guide on building a learning platform using Strapi CMS and Gridsome, a Vue.js-powered static site generator. Strapi, an open-source headless CMS, allows developers to manage backend content via REST or GraphQL APIs, offering customization and frontend flexibility. The guide walks through setting up a Strapi project, creating content types, and using Cloudinary for media management. It also covers implementing authentication with Vuex and Axios for managing user sessions and JWT tokens. Gridsome's server API is leveraged to fetch and render course data from Strapi, with GraphQL for querying and Gridsome templates for creating dynamic pages. The guide culminates in setting up authentication and navigation for a seamless user experience on the learning platform.
