Welcome to the Astro Landing Page Example! This is a minimal, lightweight starter template built with Astro that helps you quickly create fast, content-focused landing pages.

​
What is Astro?

Astro is a modern web framework designed for building fast, content-focused websites. It allows you to use your favorite JavaScript frameworks (React, Vue, Svelte, etc.) while shipping zero JavaScript by default, resulting in incredibly fast page loads.

​
Why use this template?

This landing page template is built on Astro’s minimal starter kit, providing you with:

Lightning fast

Zero JavaScript by default means your landing page loads instantly

Simple structure

Clean, minimal file structure that’s easy to understand and customize

TypeScript support

Built-in TypeScript configuration with strict type checking

Developer friendly

Hot module reloading and excellent developer experience out of the box

​
Project structure

The template follows Astro’s standard project structure: 
/
├── public/
│   ├── favicon.ico
│   └── favicon.svg
├── src/
│   └── pages/
│       └── index.astro
├── astro.config.mjs
├── package.json
└── tsconfig.json

​
Key directories

  • public/ - Static assets like images, fonts, and favicons that are served as-is
  • src/pages/ - Astro pages that become routes in your site. Each .astro or .md file becomes a route based on its filename
  • src/components/ - You can add reusable Astro, React, Vue, or Svelte components here (not included in minimal template)
Astro uses file-based routing. A file at src/pages/about.astro automatically becomes available at /about.

​
Key features

​
Zero configuration

The template works out of the box with minimal configuration. The astro.config.mjs is intentionally simple: 
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';

export default defineConfig({});

​
TypeScript by default

TypeScript support is built-in with strict type checking enabled in tsconfig.json: 
{
  "extends": "astro/tsconfigs/strict",
  "include": [".astro/types.d.ts", "**/*"],
  "exclude": ["dist"]
}

​
Modern tooling

The template uses Astro’s latest version (5.17.1) with all the modern features you’d expect:
  • Hot module reloading during development
  • Optimized production builds
  • Built-in preview server
  • Support for all major UI frameworks
