I am planning out my first project using a Headless CMS. I have settled on using Strapi for my project. Is it logical to use Strapi while not using SPA framework/library? I want to use express and EJS to build my website and Strapi as the backend. Is this okay to do? I assume you would use this with your node server that will make REST requests to the Strapi API. Am I glossing over anything?

Hey there,
nice to meet you!
You can use whatever frontend you want to use, even plain JavaScript.
If you are already familiar with Express, I would use your setup and server-side render your frontend with Express and EJS.
If you are new to Express, I would probably have a look at Koa, because Strapi is built on top of it, so you would only have to learn one underlying framework.
