Strapi Raises $31M Series B to Empower Millions Of People to Share and Manage Any Content, Anywhere

Platforms
Written By Rick Watson

Strapi is the leading open-source headless CMS. It’s 100% Javascript, fully customizable and developer-first.

The company is focused on developers first and plans to use the money to invest in its open-source community.

With the rise of the cloud, open source is not the selling point it used to be in the application market.  It also seems to me like there are so many content management systems getting funding.  Is the market big enough for all of them?
