Astro
Content-first web framework. Ships zero JavaScript by default, Islands architecture for partial hydration, and adapters for any UI framework.
Astro is the content-first answer to React-everywhere frameworks. By default Astro renders pages as static HTML and ships zero JavaScript. When you need interactivity, you opt in with an Island: a React, Vue, Svelte, or Solid component that hydrates only on its own slice of the page. The result is exceptionally fast marketing sites, blogs, and docs without giving up component frameworks. Pairs with any deployment target, including Vercel, Netlify, and Cloudflare Pages.
