Trying to read a blog post and getting sidetracked by 14px monospace font where the contrast somehow doesn't feel sharp enough at 9.98:1 and thank goodness for browsers with Reader Mode but anyways hashtag you might like this if you can read it #AstroDotBuild #Emacs #DoomEmacs

Setting up Doom Emacs for Astro Development

The beauty of Astro is it's like the Nextflow of web frameworks

Incidentally the #AstroDotBuild folks have done a fine job over the life of the project. First time I tried this experiment (around 1.0 release), it took a minute and a half to build ~500 pages. Now it takes about ten seconds to build 700.

As I get fancier it'll take longer, but the first time I couldn't even think about getting fancy.

I broke my splash site, and learned a few lessons about community, build vs buy, and sharpening the saw...

@ryanhiebert have you looked at Astro before? Its kind of like Django in JS land, and it has quite a nice component system for more complicated fronted layouts. Only thing I’m not sure about is its integrations with react etc. At that point if you need something less static and more SPA-like I’d probably still go with Remix or Next like you said. #AstroDotBuild
Just deployed the newest version of my personal site. It is built with @astro (which I love btw). Anyway, let me know what you think https://zander.wtf #withastro #astrojs #astrodotbuild
Hi! I'm Zander, I make websites

Just made my first open source contribution to Astro! 🚀

Excited because it's a major project I use for my own blog. Thanks to the @astro team for their great contribution docs and friendly Discord chat. Check out v2.10.0 for my little patch if you use Astro!

How it's going... (and the day's not over yet!)

Currently there are 16 issues open in *total* in the Astro Docs repo. (I woke up to 46, and made 2 more this morning.)

Team Docs is making Thursday look like a Friday!

(Note the "24 hour" period in the @astro docs repo stats pictured.)

Shout out to @yanthomasdev reviewing translations and @otterlord making issue-closing PRs, like two cartoon Tasmanian Devils!
