Astro Usage Guide

Astro is the web framework for content-driven websites.
Quick Reference
File Location
CLI looks for astro.config.js, astro.config.mjs, astro.config.cjs, and astro.config.ts in: ./. Use --config for custom path.
CLI Commands
npx astro dev- Start the development server.npx astro build- Build your project and write it to disk.npx astro check- Check your project for errors.npx astro add- Add an integration.npmx astro sync- Generate TypeScript types for all Astro modules.
Re-run after adding/changing plugins.
Project Structure
Astro leverages an opinionated folder layout for your project. Every Astro project root should include some directories and files. Reference project structure docs.
src/*- Your project source code (components, pages, styles, images, etc.)src/pages- Required sub-directory in your Astro project. Without it, your site will have no pages or routes!src/components- It is common to group and organize all of your project components together in this folder. This is a common convention in Astro projects, but it is not required. Feel free to organize your components however you like!src/layouts- Just likesrc/components, this directory is a common convention but not required.src/styles- It is a common convention to store your CSS or Sass files here, but this is not required. As long as your styles live somewhere in the src/ directory and are imported correctly, Astro will handle and optimize them.public/*- Your non-code, unprocessed assets (fonts, icons, etc.). The files in this folder will be copied into the build folder untouched, and then your site will be built.package.json- A project manifest.astro.config.{js,mjs,cjs,ts}- An Astro configuration file. (recommended)tsconfig.json- A TypeScript configuration file. (recommended)
Core Config Options
| Option | Notes |
|---|---|
site |
Your final, deployed URL. Astro uses this full URL to generate your sitemap and canonical URLs in your final build. |
Adapters
Deploy to your favorite server, serverless, or edge host with build adapters. Use an adapter to enable on-demand rendering in your Astro project.
Add Node.js adapter using astro add:
npx astro add node --yes
Add Cloudflare adapter using astro add:
npx astro add cloudflare --yes
Add Netlify adapter using astro add:
npx astro add netlify --yes
Add Vercel adapter using astro add:

cache-components
Expert guidance for Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR). **PROACTIVE ACTIVATION**: Use this skill automatically when working in Next.js projects that have `cacheComponents: true` in their next.config.ts/next.config.js. When this config is detected, proactively apply Cache Components patterns and best practices to all React Server Component implementations. **DETECTION**: At the start of a session in a Next.js project, check for `cacheComponents: true` in next.config. If enabled, this skill's patterns should guide all component authoring, data fetching, and caching decisions. **USE CASES**: Implementing 'use cache' directive, configuring cache lifetimes with cacheLife(), tagging cached data with cacheTag(), invalidating caches with updateTag()/revalidateTag(), optimizing static vs dynamic content boundaries, debugging cache issues, and reviewing Cache Component implementations.

component-refactoring
Refactor high-complexity React components in Dify frontend. Use when `pnpm analyze-component --json` shows complexity > 50 or lineCount > 300, when the user asks for code splitting, hook extraction, or complexity reduction, or when `pnpm analyze-component` warns to refactor before testing; avoid for simple/well-structured components, third-party wrappers, or when the user explicitly wants testing without refactoring.
