Astro is the open-source content-first web framework launched in 2021 that pioneered islands architecture (selective hydration of interactive components on otherwise static pages). Cloudflare acquired Astro in January 2026 with public commitment to keep the framework open source. The current major version is Astro 6 (with 6.4 introducing the Rust-based Sätteri Markdown processor). Articles cover Astro architecture, the Cloudflare acquisition, framework updates, and operational guides.
