Build a Company Website with Bolt.new and Strapi 5 - Part 2

In the second part of a tutorial series by Theodore Kelechukwu Onyejiaku, the process of connecting a company website frontend built with Bolt.new to a Strapi 5 backend is detailed, culminating in deployment on Netlify via GitHub. The tutorial emphasizes versioning, installing and configuring the Strapi client, and fetching data from Strapi to transition the project from a static prototype to a dynamic, CMS-driven application. It also discusses debugging common errors in Bolt.new, ensuring responsiveness, and enhancing the UI with dynamic content from Strapi's modeling system. The article highlights Bolt.new's capacity for rapid prototyping and AI-assisted development while noting its limitations, such as context loss and dependency mismatches. Despite these challenges, it illustrates how Bolt.new can accelerate the development process, though it doesn't replace the need for human oversight in complex, enterprise-level applications. The tutorial concludes by suggesting further enhancements and encourages using Bolt.new as a tool for experimentation and quick MVPs.
