Hey Ali,

It seems as though you decided to move the website off of Strapi? Also you are hosting your portfolio/ website example (link at the end of the blog) on Netlify now and not Heroku? Can you explain why you decided to make the changes?

I'm assuming you're new to the frontend or in general in programming. If this is the case then yes the school website frontend is hosted on netlify platform and strapi backend API is hosted on Heroku platform. In this architecture, the frontend and backend layer has separation which we called decoupled architecture, unlike WordPress site. Anyone can consume this strapi backend API. the same way you can use this API to build mobile,desktop app too
