A blazing-fast static site built with Astro v6 and styled entirely with TailwindCSS v4. No custom CSS files, no CSS-in-JS — just utility classes.
Combine the speed of Astro's island architecture with the utility-first power of TailwindCSS v4.
Astro renders pages to static HTML at build time. Zero JavaScript by default means lightning-fast load times and perfect Lighthouse scores.
Only the interactive parts of your page ship JavaScript. Static content stays static, keeping your bundles tiny and your site speedy.
The latest TailwindCSS v4 with the native Vite plugin — zero config needed. Automatic content detection, CSS-first configuration, and lightning-fast HMR.
No PostCSS config, no tailwind.config.js — TailwindCSS v4 works out of the box with the Vite plugin. Automatic source detection keeps your build lean.
Astro's type-safe content collections let you manage Markdown, MDX, and data files with built-in validation and TypeScript support.
Bring React, Vue, Svelte, Solid, or any framework you love. Astro renders them all to static HTML with optional client-side hydration.
