About Astro

Astro is a web framework for building content-driven websites like blogs, marketing, and e-commerce. Astro pioneers a new frontend architecture to reduce JavaScript overhead and complexity. It uses server-side rendering of UI components (React, Svelte, Vue, etc.) to HTML by default, shipping zero client-side JavaScript unless explicitly opted-in via Astro islands.

Key Features & Usage

Perfect for content-heavy sites where performance and SEO are critical. Allows using multiple UI frameworks on the same page.

Example Code

---
// src/pages/index.astro

---
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <title>{pageTitle}</title>
</head>

  <h1>Welcome to {pageTitle}!</h1>
</body>
</html>
