About Astro
Astro 7.0 lands a Rust compiler and advanced routing as the framework chases build speed
Astro shipped its 7.0 major release, headlined by a new Rust compiler, Vite 8, advanced routing, and structured logging — the culmination of a long run of 6.x releases that incrementally introduced advanced routing (with Hono and Cloudflare support), a pluggable and Rust-based Markdown processor, and better logging. The throughline is build performance and routing flexibility. Around the releases, Astro keeps up heavy community and partnership activity (TinaCMS, CloudCannon, events, even merch).
