Astro (website: astro.build) is a JavaScript framework for building websites.

It’s optimized for static generation and it strips as much JavaScript out of the site for runtime as it can.

It also has great Markdown/MDX support, making it a great framework for developers who want a simple way to design and build a website and continue to write in Markdown formats.
