Astro Development

Professional Astro development from experienced developers based in Graz, Austria.

Astro is our framework of choice for content websites, marketing pages and documentation portals. Static generation with optional interactivity enables lightning-fast load times and perfect Lighthouse scores - ideal for SEO-critical projects.

Our own company website, which you are currently visiting, is built with Astro. The Klanglicht Audio Guide - a web application for the Graz art festival with over 100,000 annual visitors - was also built with Astro and Cloudflare Pages to ensure maximum reliability and global performance.

Astro's Islands architecture allows us to ship JavaScript only where interactivity is actually needed. The result is websites that load instantly on any device and any connection - a decisive advantage for conversion rate and user experience.

FAQ

Astro FAQ

When does dectria recommend Astro over Next.js?

Astro is ideal for content-heavy websites, blogs, marketing pages and documentation where performance and SEO are the priority. We choose Next.js for interactive web applications, dashboards and SaaS platforms. Often we combine both: Astro for the marketing website, Next.js for the application itself.

Can Astro display dynamic content?

Yes, through the Islands architecture, individual components can be interactive (React, Svelte, Vue) while the rest of the page remains static. For forms, search features or real-time data, we integrate targeted interactive islands into the otherwise static page.

How performant are Astro websites really?

Our Astro projects regularly achieve Lighthouse scores of 95-100 across all categories. Since Astro sends no JavaScript to the client by default, pages load extremely fast - even on slow mobile connections. The Klanglicht Audio Guide was deployed via a global CDN and reliably handles high concurrent visitor loads.
