## Quick start We've been working on a major update to Strapi for several months now, rewriting the core framework and the administration panel. Performances has been increased, Developer eXperience has been improved and a brand new plugins ecosystem has been introduced. **Both versions are available, we still recommend you to use v1 for production usage.**. Deploy #### Alpha The alpha has support for the latest version of Node.js (v9) and npm (v5). ```bash npm install strapi@alpha -g ``` #### Stable This is the production-ready version of Strapi (v1). You should also consider that the migration to v3 will not be easy due to many breaking changes. ```bash npm install strapi -g ``` Read the [Getting started](https://strapi.io/getting-started) page to create your first project using Strapi. ## Features - **Modern Admin Panel:** Elegant, entirely customizable and fully extensible admin panel. - **Secure by default:** Reusable policies, CSRF, CORS, P3P, Xframe, XSS, and more. - **Plugins Oriented:** Install auth system, content management, custom plugins, and more, in seconds. - **Blazing Fast:** Built on top of Node.js, Strapi delivers amazing performances. - **Front-end Agnostic:** Use any front-end frameworks (React, Vue, Angular, etc.), mobile apps or even IoT. - **Powerful CLI:** Scaffold projects and APIs on the fly. - **SQL & NoSQL databases:** Work with Mongo as a main database, also supports Postgres, MySQL, etc. ## Philosophy ? > At [Strapi](https://strapi.io), everything we do we believe in changing the status quo of web development. Our products are simple to use, user friendly and production-ready. Web and mobile applications needed a powerful, simple to use and production-ready API-driven solution. That's why we created Strapi, an open-source Content Management Framework (CMF) for exposing your content (data, media) accross multi-devices. Halfway between a CMS and a framework, Strapi takes advantages of both worlds. A powerful dashboard to easily manage your content with a flexible framework layer to develop and integrate specific features. ## Support For more information on the upcoming version, please take a look to our [ROADMAP](ROADMAP.md). ### Community support For general help using Strapi, please refer to [the official Strapi documentation](https://strapi.io/documentation/).
