Trying to read a blog post and getting sidetracked by 14px monospace font where the contrast somehow doesn't feel sharp enough at 9.98:1 and thank goodness for browsers with Reader Mode but anyways hashtag you might like this if you can read it #AstroDotBuild #Emacs #DoomEmacs

Setting up Doom Emacs for Astro Development • Edmund Miller

Incidentally the #AstroDotBuild folks have done a fine job over the life of the project. First time I tried this experiment (around 1.0 release), it took a minute and a half to build ~500 pages. Now it takes about ten seconds to build 700.

As I get fancier it'll take longer, but the first time I couldn't even think about getting fancy.

I broke my splash site, and learned a few lessons about community, build vs buy, and sharpening the saw...

My coworker @IanVS wrote about how we use @vitest , Storybook, fast-check, and Playwright to thoroughly validate our web app for @definednet - https://www.defined.net/blog/modern-frontend-testing/

@ryanhiebert have you looked at Astro before? Its kind of like Django in JS land, and it has quite a nice component system for more complicated fronted layouts. Only thing I’m not sure about is its integrations with react etc. At that point if you need something less static and more SPA-like I’d probably still go with Remix or Next like you said. #AstroDotBuild

I guess I’ll jump in the hype. #10ThingsILoveRightNow

Just deployed the newest version of my personal site. It is built with @astro (which I love btw). Anyway, let me know what you think https://zander.wtf #withastro #astrojs #astrodotbuild

Just made my first open source contribution to Astro! 🚀

Excited because it's a major project I use for my own blog. Thanks to the @astro team for their great contribution docs and friendly Discord chat. Check out v2.10.0 for my little patch if you use Astro!

How it's going... (and the day's not over yet!)

Currently there are 16 issues open in *total* in the Astro Docs repo. (I woke up to 46, and made 2 more this morning.)

Team Docs is making Thursday look like a Friday!

(Note the "24 hour" period in the @astro docs repo stats pictured.)

Shout out to @yanthomasdev reviewing translations and @otterlord making issue-closing PRs, like two cartoon Tasmanian Devils!

Why Astro? Why is it that when I first tried out your app server everything didn't work and I was super frustrated - but now with your new version it all seems to "just work" and I can make my silly client side game using #kaboomjs ? What happened? Please don't 're-break' client side js! I'm going to hitch my cart to https://astro.build

And the last of your Astro Docs Maintainers has found his way here!

Please welcome @kevinzunigacuellar, whom you know and love, and who is merging Spanish docs PRs and reviewing your CMS guide submissions!

omg the vibe in the #AstroDotBuild discord makes me want to hug someone.

I need another discord like I need a hole in my head, but if I am going to join one, it had better have the team behind it responding to the community this way.

Stuff like this makes me happy.

@yosh imo #astrodotbuild w/ types gets you part of the way there, though obviously w/o various #a11y or other linters you're not going to get *validity* tested

Started rebuilding my personal website with AstroJS. Love it!

Expect more changes to come the next couple days .. weeks..

It's working! The newest addition to our set of automated link checks in GitHub for Astro Docs PRs just caught a link without descriptive text. 🥳

@calebjasik@mastodon.social @fasterthanlime lol I got #AstroDotBuild #mdx to work.

```mdx
import { Code } from "astro/components";
import attempt1Raw from "./attempt1.ts?raw";

<Code code={attempt1Raw} lang="ts" />
```

where `attempt1.ts` contains

```ts
export const attempt1 = (_input: string) => {
return 3;
};
```
