Managing content effectively

We already spent a significant amount of time in the Content Manager, adding Classrooms, Tutorials, and other entities to our system. While many applications might have custom interfaces to edit these content-types (imagine a React application where Users—not admin users—can sign in and manage entities), in many scenarios, you will only manage content through the admin panel. Other than us, the Super Admin users of the Strapi instance, we learned in the previous section that we can also have Editor and Author users who can manage the content as well. In a typical organization, this can be the marketing department, content editors, and other stakeholders.

Once our content starts growing and we have hundreds or even thousands of entities, it becomes tedious to just browse through a long list of table rows. Strapi has some handy functionalities to explore, find, and manage content easily.
