πŸš€ Project Structure

Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:

/
β”œβ”€β”€ public/
β”‚ └── favicon.svg
β”œβ”€β”€ src/
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ components/
β”‚ β”‚ └── Card.astro
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ layouts/
β”‚ β”‚ └── Layout.astro
β”‚ └── pages/
β”‚ └── index.astro
└── package.json

Astro looks for .astro or .md files in the src/pages/ directory. Each page is exposed as a route based on its file name.

There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where we like to put any Astro/React/Vue/Svelte/Preact components.

Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/ directory.

🧞 Commands

All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:

CommandAction
npm installInstalls dependencies
npm run devStarts local dev server at localhost:4321
npm run buildBuild your production site to ./dist/
npm run previewPreview your build locally, before deploying
npm run astro ...Run CLI commands like astro add, astro check
npm run astro -- --helpGet help using the Astro CLI
