Astro, the technology behind our sites: fast, secure and editable with AI

An Astro site ships as ready-made pages: it loads at once, has no database to hack and costs little to host. This site is built with Astro, like the ones we deliver, and your whole team can edit it by asking an AI assistant.

A new article starts with this flag set to true. Publishing means a review switches it to false and merges: the site rebuilds and goes live on its own.

A real file from our repository: the header of an article on this blog.

What it is

Astro is an open-source web framework released under the MIT licence. It builds the site ahead of time: every page becomes a ready-to-serve file, with no database or server to maintain behind it. Content lives in organised, validated files, so an article without a title blocks publishing instead of going live, and interactive parts only load where they are needed. The Astro team joined Cloudflare in January 2026; the project remains open source.

The Challenge Us blog, built with Astro: every article is a file, and the site refuses to publish with a dead link.

Why we chose it

Pages that load at once

The site is served as is, with no computing on each visit: your visitors and Google find it fast, on mobile too.

Almost nothing to hack

No database and no plugins to keep updated online: the usual WordPress vulnerabilities go away with them.

Publishing means approving

Every change goes through a preview and an approval: nothing goes live by mistake, and everything stays in the history.

Lightweight hosting

Static files cost little to host and absorb a traffic spike with no server to scale up.

How we use it ourselves

  • This site is built with Astro: over a hundred pages in French and English, rebuilt and checked on every change.
  • Our articles are files in our repository: an article starts as a draft, and the review publishes it by merging it.
  • The Palmora Property site, in six languages, runs on Astro: it updates every morning from the CRM.
  • So does the Challenge Us content site: 93 articles, and a site that refuses to publish while a link is dead.
  • Every change goes through an online preview before it is published.

How we install it for you

  1. Measure

    We measure the starting point (traffic, rankings, speed) and list the pages that must not break.

  2. Rebuild

    All your content becomes readable files, then every address, link and image is checked against the old site.

  3. Go-live

    A switch with no downtime, every old address redirected, and fourteen days of monitoring.

  4. Autonomy

    Everyone who publishes makes their first change with AI, with us alongside, then carries on alone.

Frequently asked questions

Can an Astro site be edited without a developer?

Yes. You ask the AI for the change in plain words, it prepares and checks it, and you approve it on a preview before it goes live. If your team prefers an editing interface, we add Sanity.

What happens to my SEO if I leave WordPress?

It comes with you: every old address leads to its new page in a single hop, everything is checked against the old site, and the go-live is monitored for fourteen days, with the old site ready to come back.

Does Cloudflare own Astro?

The Astro team joined Cloudflare in January 2026. The framework remains open source under the MIT licence, and an Astro site can be hosted anywhere you like.
