Reviewer scorecard
“Zero JS by default with islands architecture is the right approach for content sites. Performance is incredible out of the box.”
“Runs everywhere — Workers, Deno, Bun, Node. The middleware system and RPC mode are well-designed.”
“For content sites, blogs, and marketing pages, nothing beats Astro's performance. The multi-framework support is practical.”
“The portability across runtimes is genuinely useful. Express-like familiarity with modern performance.”
“Content sites don't need SPAs. Astro proved that shipping less JavaScript is both possible and better.”
“A universal web framework that runs on any runtime is the right abstraction for the multi-runtime future.”
