I create beginner friendly tutorials and articles.

I believe that programming can transform a person's career and life. I create resources that can help newbies and fellow bootcamp grads expand their learning.

Great post on Astro. I liked how you went over the pros and cons. My favorite feature of Astro is the concept of Islands and being able to code them in any framework.

I sat down and rebuilt one of my sites with Astro and was delighted how quickly I could spin it up compared to other site builders.

Overall for me it's all about removing the pain and getting to the content, Astro solved some problems I had to write a whole bunch of code for in the past, so that checked the big boxes for me.

I agree that it is a good framework to get straight to the content with less code. I'm glad you tried Astro out and enjoyed it!

Thank you so much given such a piece of valuable information about Astro. it's really helpful tips for me! I appreciate the author of this post sharing something special. I am super excited to share that I have found [Graphicly](https://graphicsly.net/) Graphicly is an all-in-one plugin for graphics management, image cropping, and image optimization. Graphicly lets you easily download and use images from the web,

whether you are on a website or on your WordPress site. With our powerful API, you can create customized libraries of images that integrate seamlessly into your theme’s header.

You can also upload and store your own images directly within the plugin—so there’s less work to do when it comes to finding specific visual assets, images/videos that are relevant and needed by your website users.

as a result of reading this post. I'm getting to save your profile in my favorite list. 🥰

Going to use it on my next project! Funny how the trend moved from static html pages to using javascript for interactivity now back to shipping as little javascript as possible.

Exactly! It will be interesting to see how long the minimum JS trend stays.
