Strapi Development in Derry
Building with Strapi for Derry organisations, where the content management system becomes part of your deployment rather than a service you subscribe to. It is a Node application with a database behind it — so hosting, upgrades, backups and availability are yours, which is the price of the control and the customisation it offers.
Why this comes up
The problem
The CMS was chosen for its flexibility, and nobody was assigned to run the application it turns out to be.
What you get
What we deliver
- Hosting and deployment planned, since this is an application not a service
- Content types modelled for how the content is consumed across front ends
- Customisation done through the documented extension points rather than core edits
- Roles configured for the editorial team and for API access separately
- Upgrade approach agreed, as major versions have involved real migration work
- Backups covering the database and the uploaded media together

Strapi Development in Derry — common questions
- What does self-hosting actually commit us to?
- Running a Node application in production. That means deployment, monitoring, upgrades, database backups and someone available when it stops — all ordinary work, and work that has to be assigned rather than assumed because the software was free to obtain.
- Why avoid editing core files?
- Because upgrades overwrite them. The platform provides extension points for customisation precisely so your changes survive a version bump, whereas edits to the core are lost or conflict — and reapplying them at every release is how upgrades stop happening.
- How significant are major upgrades?
- Historically substantial. Major versions have restructured enough that upgrading is a project rather than a dependency bump, so the version you build on and the plan for moving off it are worth considering at the start rather than at the point of urgency.
- When is this the right choice?
- When you need the content management system to be yours — custom logic, unusual integrations, data that must stay on your infrastructure. Where a hosted service would serve, it usually costs less in total than running an application yourself.
- Do you work with businesses across County Londonderry?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Derry and the surrounding County Londonderry area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Derry businesses do you usually work with?
- Cross-border trading systems for businesses working into Donegal, and manufacturing tooling for the north west. Beyond that we work across Manufacturing, Healthcare, Higher Education, Digital and Tourism.
- Do you cover the areas around Derry?
- Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast, Lisburn. Derry is an urban area of roughly 85,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Londonderry region rather than the city boundary alone.
