Astro Notes
Astro looks for .astro
or .md
files in the src/pages/
directory. Each page is exposed as a route based on its file name.
There’s nothing special about src/components/
, but that’s where we like to put any Astro/React/Vue/Svelte/Preact components.
Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/
directory. Cosmic Themes also frequently uses src/assets/
for images when using Astro asssets for image optimization.
