When attempting to create a Strapi App which is connected to a MongoDB cluster and selecting the custom installation, all online tutorials suggest that "mongodb" should be one of the options in the dropdown list alongside "postgres", "mysql" and "sqlite". However, I am not getting an option for mongodb.

I have tried reinstalling nodejs which then triggered the reinstall of create-strapi-app. I also have mongoDB installed locally.

Strapi has abandoned its support for NoSQL DBs. The MongoDB team might (if at all) write their own connector to MongoDB, however ETA is around July, and stable version ETA is around August. SQLite is now the default DB. However I believe they recommend using PostgreSQL for production.
