Summary

Strapi, a popular headless content management system (CMS), facilitates the creation of REST APIs that can be integrated with any frontend application, such as those built with Nuxt.js. This tutorial guides users through connecting a Strapi backend to a Nuxt frontend using GraphQL, focusing on developing an event application. It involves setting up Strapi, creating custom content types for events and categories, and configuring the API permissions to enable CRUD operations. The tutorial demonstrates creating a Nuxt application that fetches data from Strapi using the GraphQL API, organizing events into categories, and displaying them on a user interface styled with TailwindCSS. It also covers creating dynamic routes for individual event pages and suggests potential enhancements like adding search functionality. Throughout the process, the tutorial highlights the ease with which Strapi allows for multilingual support and seamless integration with JavaScript frameworks, enhancing the flexibility and scalability of web applications.
