Build a full-stack e-learning platform using caisy, GraphQL, and Next.js app router

Developers love to build. It is not always easy to build everything from scratch, especially when you have something available for FREE and an excellent tool to leverage.

I have discovered caisy very recently. It is a headless content management system you can use for FREE to store data and manage content most efficiently.

This video will teach you how to create a full-stack application with caisy as the backend data store, GraphQL as the API endpoint, Next.js as the framework for user interface development, and TailwindCSS for styling.

In the end, I will also teach you how to deploy this app end-to-end publicly on Vercel.

Let's GO ?
