I have started strapi using ‘npm start develop’ and it is continuing to tell me that I cannot edit content types because strapi is in production mode. I have also added `NODE_ENV=development’ to my .env file. I have also set the system environment variable for this as well. Nothing seems to be working. In the console when I start strapi, it is showing it being in development mode as well.

Finally fixed the issue by running. ‘npx strapi develop’ apparently the command ‘npm run develop’ wasn’t doing something that it should have been.

You should report this as bug, I think.

I have tried this it does’nt work for me.

As said setting NODE_ENV = development works run command

NODE_ENV=development npx strapi develop

This works for me.

@DMehaffy I guess it is the intended behavior, isn’t it?
