Hello,
We are considering using Strapi to build a portal composed of various components. Some of these components would pull data from public APIs—like displaying the weather, for example. Others would require authentication, such as showing helpdesk tickets.
Our current plan is to create a separate plugin for each component and then design a page layout that brings everything together. For instance, a homepage might include:
- Today’s Weather
- Open Tickets
- Urgent Tickets
We want the homepage’s component list to be content-driven, enabling an admin to easily rearrange or modify the components. For example, they might want to move “Open Tickets” to the top, remove “Urgent Tickets,” or add another component of a similar type.
Given this approach, I have a couple of questions:
- Is Strapi the right platform to achieve this kind of setup?
- Can these components be developed as separate projects (e.g., grouping Helpdesk and Weather components together)?
Thanks
Not sure if this diagram helps, but here goes
