I’ve created a website (vanilla JS/CSS/HTML) which uses Strapi as a backend. It works fine on my localhost. But I cannot get it to work on the DO platform. I’ve uploaded both of them as apps, but I can’t get my static website to talk to / access the Strapi backend.
The two apps work independently; I can log into Strapi and create/modify data and I can visit my website and see the various pages (but no data) so they’re working, but not communicating with each other.
I’ve gone through the relevant tutorials but can’t see what I’m doing wrong. Any and all help greatly appreciated - if someone has done this before, please point me to them. Note this is not React or Vue - it’s just plain old vanilla Javascript.

Hello,
I could suggest a couple of resources here:
Build a Fullstack App With Strapi and Next.js
Consuming a Custom API With React: In this video you will learn how to build a Custom API with Strapi and focus on our frontend code using React to grab data from an API.
Hope that this helps!
Best,
Bobby
