Foodadvisor Updates February 2021
Published: 2021-02-12 10:49:00

That's it, we are in the middle of winter, it is very cold and the restaurants are unfortunately still closed. But that will not prevent our great [Live demo](https://strapi.io/demo) from receiving updates!
Here is what was added in the last version of [Foodadvisor](https://github.com/strapi/foodadvisor)

## Universal pages

[Daniel Madalitso Phiri](https://twitter.com/malgamves) added the implementation of a new very useful collection type to the project: [Universals](https://github.com/strapi/foodadvisor/pull/67) But what is that for?
Well, it simply allows you to create pages on the fly directly in the admin panel. You just need to structure your frontend appropriately so that you just have to create your pages afterwards! Allowing content managers to create pages on the fly is a must have for any [headless cms](https://strapi.io/headless-cms-guide). This is why it is important to show that it is quite feasible and easy!

Indeed we use this collection type internally on our [website](https://strapi.io) and it turns out to be very useful when we want to quickly deploy new pages on it. Pair that with a [Webhook](https://strapi.io/blog/webhooks) building your favorite [Nuxt.js](https://nuxtjs.org/), [Gatsby](https://www.gatsbyjs.com/) or [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) frontend on [Vercel](https://vercel.com/) and you are good to go!

## Upgrade Strapi version to 3.4.6

The version of Strapi has been upgraded to the latest to this date.
More information here: [https://github.com/strapi/strapi/releases](https://github.com/strapi/strapi/releases)

## Guided Tour

We wanted to implement a guided tour to take you by the hand at the start of the demo. Relatively simple and fast it will show you the important parts of the admin allowing you to create your content-types and subsequently your content.

We are using [reactour](https://github.com/elrumordelaluz/reactour), and we have made a guided-tour plugin in the app. You can see how it works here: [https://github.com/strapi/foodadvisor/tree/master/api/plugins/guided-tour](https://github.com/strapi/foodadvisor/tree/master/api/plugins/guided-tour)
Feel free to give it a try or event contribute to it ;)

## Front-end on Codesandbox

When you'll ask for a live demo [here](https://strapi.io/demo), you'll receive an email with the link of your Strapi instance. We also included a [codesandbox](https://codesandbox.io/) link that will open a front-end that can be connected to your demo.

Once the front-end is open on codesandbox, you'll need to add an environment variable in the `.env` file to connect it to your Strapi instance.
  - Open the `.env` file.
  - Add the following variable: `REACT_APP_BACKEND_URL=<URL-OF-DEMO-WITHOUT-TRAILING-SLASH>`.
  - Save.

If you add a new restaurant for example, you'll be able to see it on your sandbox after reloading your app!
