About
Astro is an open-source JavaScript web framework designed for building fast, content-driven websites including blogs, marketing sites, and e-commerce. It uses a server-first rendering approach with an 'islands' architecture that ships minimal JavaScript to the browser. Astro supports all major UI frameworks like React, Vue, and Svelte, and integrates with popular CMS platforms and deployment targets.
Problem
Traditional JavaScript frameworks send too much JavaScript to the browser, causing slow page loads and poor Core Web Vitals scores.
For
web developers building content-driven websites and applications
How it works
Astro renders components on the server and sends lightweight HTML to the browser, using an 'islands' architecture to hydrate only interactive components with JavaScript.
