Strapi, an open source content management system (CMS), today announced that it raised $31 million in Series B funding led by CRV with participation from Flex Capital, Index Ventures, and angel investors including former GitHub CEO Nat Friedman. With the capital, CEO Pierre Burgy tells TechCrunch that the plan is to launch a new product, Strapi Cloud, while bringing in additional tech and solution partners and further developing the Strapi project.

Strapi has it origins in software that Burgy, Aurélien Georget, and Jim Laurie created together while working as freelance developers in college. Annoyed by the limitations of traditional frameworks and CMSes, many of which weren’t developed with mobile websites in mind, they decided to create their own solution, Strapi, to use for clients’ projects.
