Chartbrew Plugin | Episode 1
This mini-series is all about setting up and using the Chartbrew Plugin for the STRAPI Headless CMS system. I will explain how to setup the open-source and free STRAPI Headless CMS, some node.js and next.js parameters and configurations, as well as deploying the solutions to cloud providers such as Heroku.com and Vercel.com. Many people are craving new ways to visualize data using dashboards, graphs and charts. You can use Chartbrew to connect to any API to fetch data for your Dashboards.
There are many steps in the process and this Chartbrew mini-series will get you through all the steps on a Windows Development System. You can find out more information about the Chartbrew dashboard system at their website https://chartbrew.com as well as on the Strapi plugin website here: https://market.strapi.io/plugins/@cha...
I will make videos sometimes about transformative technologies, and make retro videos on other YouTube channels I am planning.
