With the overwhelming number of JavaScript frameworks available—Gatsby, Remix, Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Solid Start, TanStack Start, and many more—do we really need another one? Enter Astro, a framework that redefines the landscape with its innovative Islands Architecture, focusing on building high-performance, content-rich websites.

Astro combines blazing-fast performance with unparalleled flexibility, starting with 0 client-side JavaScript by default with customizable hydration enabled only where needed. Its framework-agnostic design lets you pick (or even mix) React, Solid, Svelte, Vue, (or almost any JavaScript library) or just plain HTML and Vanilla JS, while offering flexible rendering options like SSG, SSR, and CSR. With features like Markdown/MDX support, powerful CMS integrations, image optimization, view transitions, and pre-built themes, Astro delivers an exceptional developer experience. Powered by Vite, Astro is perfect for building modern MPAs deployable anywhere Node.js runs.

If you need to launch a website where content (SEO), performance (core web vitals), and interactivity are all of utmost importance, I believe there may be no better tool than this emerging framework. Let's take a look at what you can build with Astro!
