Build Astro Sites
with AI
Describe your site. Get a production-ready Astro project with visual CMS, edge deployment, custom domains, and perfect PageSpeed scores. Ship in minutes, not days.
Why Astro for Your Next Site
Astro is the web framework for content-driven sites. Zero JS by default, island architecture for interactivity, and the fastest static sites on the web.
Zero JavaScript by Default
Astro strips all JavaScript from the output unless you explicitly opt in. Pages ship as pure HTML and CSS — no framework runtime, no hydration overhead.
Island Architecture
Need an interactive form or dynamic component? Astro's islands let you hydrate individual React components while the rest of the page stays static. Interactivity where you need it, performance everywhere else.
Content Collections
Type-safe Markdown and MDX with frontmatter schemas. Blog posts, docs, portfolios — Astro's content layer handles it with validation and automatic routing.
SEO-First Rendering
Every page is pre-rendered as complete HTML at build time. Search engines and AI crawlers see full content on the first request — no JavaScript execution required.
Perfect Core Web Vitals
No client-side framework means tiny page weights. Astro sites consistently score 95-100 on Lighthouse with excellent LCP, CLS, and INP out of the box.
Framework Agnostic
Drop React components into any Astro page as interactive islands. Use familiar React patterns wherever you need client-side interactivity.
From Description to Deployed Astro Site
Three steps. No boilerplate, no starter template tweaking.
Describe Your Site
Tell the AI what you're building — a SaaS landing page, portfolio, docs site, restaurant site, blog. Include your brand details and content.
AI Generates Astro Code
Pagesmith generates a complete Astro project: .astro components, layouts, pages, content collections, Tailwind styles, SEO meta tags, and JSON-LD schemas.
Deploy to the Edge
One-click deploy to Cloudflare's edge network. Or export the project and deploy to Vercel, Netlify, or your own infrastructure.
Real Astro Code, Not a Black Box
Pagesmith generates the same code a senior developer would write. Standard Astro project structure, clean components, proper separation of concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I build an Astro site with AI?
Yes. Pagesmith generates complete Astro projects from a text description. You get .astro components, layouts, content collections, Tailwind CSS styling, and proper project structure — ready to build and deploy. The output is standard Astro code you can extend with any Astro integration.
What Astro features does Pagesmith support?
Pagesmith generates sites using Astro's core features: component-based architecture with .astro files, content collections for blog posts, scoped and global CSS with Tailwind, static site generation, image optimization, and SEO components with JSON-LD structured data. Sites ship zero JavaScript by default, following Astro's philosophy.
Where are Pagesmith Astro sites hosted?
Pagesmith deploys Astro sites to Cloudflare's global edge network by default — your site runs on 300+ data centers worldwide with sub-50ms response times. You can also export the full Astro project and deploy to Vercel, Netlify, AWS, or any hosting that supports static sites.
Can I export the Astro code and self-host?
Yes. Every site generates a complete Astro repository with package.json, astro.config.mjs,
component files, layouts, and content. Run npm install && npm run build locally,
push to GitHub, or deploy anywhere. There's no vendor lock-in — the code is yours.
How does Pagesmith compare to scaffolding an Astro site manually?
Running npm create astro gives you a blank starter. Pagesmith gives you a
production-ready site: designed pages, responsive layouts, SEO meta tags, Open Graph images,
JSON-LD structured data, content collections, and Tailwind styling — all generated from
your description in minutes instead of days.
Does Pagesmith support Astro content collections?
Yes. Blog and article pages use Astro's content collections with proper frontmatter schemas, collection configuration, and dynamic routing. You get type-safe content, automatic slug generation, and the standard Astro content workflow.
Can I add Astro integrations to a Pagesmith site?
Pagesmith's AI agent can add Astro integrations directly — just ask it to add React components, MDX, or other integrations and it will configure them for you. Common integrations like sitemap and image optimization are included by default. If you export the project, you can also extend it locally like any standard Astro project.
