Today we talk with Fred Schott , the co-creator of Astro, a web framework focused on improving performance. Built around island architecture, it leverages HTML over javascript where it’s an option. Astro is a great option for those who focus on content, marketing, or personal blogs, and it is a great option to use with React. In this episode we talk about when it makes sense to use Astro, and how to implement it.
