Astro for content-heavy sites where JavaScript is a tax, not a feature. Marketing sites, documentation, knowledge bases, and content-led commerce — built with islands architecture and the option to drop in React, Vue, or Svelte where interactivity is genuinely needed.
Most marketing sites built in Next.js or Nuxt are paying for SSR they don't need. Astro's static-first model with optional islands is the right shape for 80% of brand and content work — and we ship it when it fits, instead of defaulting to a heavier framework.
A platform engineering keeps shipping into without rewrites — and that audit, security, and finance can each defend.
Concrete deliverables — not adjectives. Each engagement scopes which of these are in play and what success looks like for them.
Drawn from sales calls, not SEO filler. Want a question added? Drop it in the form on this page — we update from real enquiries.
Content-led sites with limited interactivity — marketing, docs, blogs, knowledge bases. Astro ships less JS by default, scores 100 on Core Web Vitals more easily, and is faster to onboard.
For storefront frontends with Snipcart, Shopify Hydrogen islands, or headless commerce backends — yes. For full-app commerce with complex state, we'd use Next.js or Nuxt.
We use them for content-adjacent data (newsletter, comments). Production user data still goes to Postgres with a real backend — we don't conflate Astro DB with production OLTP.
Yes — both common migrations. We script the content migration and rebuild the design system once.
We build production Next.
Nuxt 3 done right — Vue 3 Composition API, Nitro on the server, and the rendering model chosen per route rather than as a global setting.
React for product teams that need engineering discipline as much as developer experience.
Vue 3 with the Composition API for teams that want React's flexibility and Vue's ergonomics.
Angular for enterprise teams that need batteries-included structure — TypeScript, RxJS, dependency injection, and the modern Signals primitive.
SvelteKit for teams who care about bundle size and ergonomics in equal measure.
