The tutorial outlines the steps to create a Deliveroo clone using modern web technologies, incorporating Next.js for the front end and Strapi for the backend. It guides users through setting up a project with React, GraphQL, and Stripe for seamless user interface and payment processing. The tutorial begins with creating a Strapi project using a command line and progresses to setting up the front-end environment, integrating Bootstrap for styling, and creating shared components and routes. It also details setting up a Strapi server to manage the backend, including user authentication and database selection, and concludes with launching both the Next.js and Strapi projects locally. The tutorial emphasizes the open-source nature of Strapi and its extensibility through plugins, which save developers significant time in building scalable, production-ready APIs.
