In partnership with
Parity pricing with Polar, a native desktop CMS app, and a tool that keeps your docs screenshots fresh automatically, we’ve got a nice mix inside.
Grab a coffee.
Lexington Themes has launched Morrisson, a lightweight native desktop app for macOS and Windows that lets non-technical teammates edit Astro content collections through a visual UI, no frontmatter syntax required.
Coding in Public walks through Astro's new Font API, showing how build-time font downloads solve the privacy, layout shift, and type safety problems that come with pulling fonts directly from Google Fonts.
A step-by-step walkthrough for adding purchasing-power parity discounts to your Astro SaaS using Polar, covering country detection via Vercel geolocation, server-side offer logic, and a lightweight banner component.
A detailed tour of using Astro as a full-stack application framework in 2026, covering server mode, middleware, Drizzle ORM, Better Auth, Bun's native APIs, and why the "content-site framework" label sells Astro well short.
Heroshot is an open-source CLI tool that generates light and dark mode screenshots from a config file, keeping your Starlight or Astro docs visually up to date without any manual capture work.
