5# Strapi Backend Conventions
6 
7## Project Structure
8 
9Follow Strapi's recommended structure in [apps/backend/src/](mdc:apps/backend/src/):
10 
11- **API**: [apps/backend/src/api/](mdc:apps/backend/src/api/) - Content types and controllers
12- **Components**: [apps/backend/src/components/](mdc:apps/backend/src/components/) - Reusable components
13- **Extensions**: [apps/backend/src/extensions/](mdc:apps/backend/src/extensions/) - Strapi extensions
14- **Admin**: [apps/backend/src/admin/](mdc:apps/backend/src/admin/) - Admin panel customizations
15 
16## File Naming Conventions
17 
18- **Controllers**: `*.controller.ts`
19- **Services**: `*.service.ts`
20- **Content Types**: `*.json` (schema files)
21- **Policies**: `*.policy.ts`
22- **Middlewares**: `*.middleware.ts`
23 
24## Content Type Structure
25 
26Each content type should have:
27- `content-types/[name]/schema.json` - Schema definition
28- `content-types/[name]/lifecycles.ts` - Lifecycle hooks
29- `api/[name]/controllers/[name].controller.ts` - Controller
30- `api/[name]/services/[name].service.ts` - Service
31 
32## Plugin Development
33 
34For custom plugins in [packages/strapi-plugin-*/](mdc:packages/strapi-plugin-status-manager/):
35 
36- **Server**: `server/src/` - Backend logic
37- **Admin**: `admin/src/` - Frontend components
38- **Package**: Follow `@primer/strapi-plugin-*` naming
39- **Exports**: Use proper package.json exports for Strapi 5

41## Configuration
42 
43- Use TypeScript configs in [apps/backend/config/](mdc:apps/backend/config/)
44- Environment-specific configs in `config/env/`
45- Plugin configuration in [apps/backend/config/plugins.ts](mdc:apps/backend/config/plugins.ts)
46 
47## Database
48 
49- Use SQLite for development (better-sqlite3)
50- Migrations in [apps/backend/database/migrations/](mdc:apps/backend/database/migrations/)
51- Seed data management with `yarn seed` and `yarn export`
