FAQ
Does it send my code anywhere?
Section titled “Does it send my code anywhere?”No. Your code never leaves your machine — DevKit reads your project files locally and answers from them, with no telemetry. The one exception is a Pro licence: on activation the licence key (never your code) is checked once against the Polar licensing API, then DevKit works offline.
Strapi v4 or v5?
Section titled “Strapi v4 or v5?”Both. The version is detected per project, and v4-in-v5 patterns (e.g.
strapi.entityService) are flagged.
What about Strapi 6?
Section titled “What about Strapi 6?”No Strapi 6 is announced yet — the CMS is on v5, and Strapi’s stated 2026 focus
is stabilising v5. DevKit reads your real schema.json and detects the version
per project, so it’s built to adapt when v6 lands.
Which editors are supported?
Section titled “Which editors are supported?”VS Code and its forks — Cursor, Windsurf, Google Antigravity, VSCodium — via the VS Code Marketplace and Open VSX.
JavaScript or TypeScript?
Section titled “JavaScript or TypeScript?”Identical behavior for ESM and CommonJS projects, challenged by a JS⇄TS parity test in the engine.
Is it affiliated with Strapi?
Section titled “Is it affiliated with Strapi?”No. DevKit for Strapi is an independent, community-built tool — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Strapi SAS. “Strapi” is a trademark of Strapi SAS, used only to describe compatibility.
Found a bug, or need help?
Section titled “Found a bug, or need help?”Bugs, questions and feature ideas → open an issue on GitHub. A missed magic-string pattern or a v4/v5 quirk is exactly what I want to hear about.
Anything about a Pro licence (key not received, refund, billing) → email pro@paulrichez.fr — that stays private.
