Astro
The web framework for content-driven websites

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.
Astro renders components on the server and sends lightweight HTML to the browser, using an 'islands' architecture to hydrate only interactive components with JavaScript.
