πŸš€ Project Structure

Inside of your Astro + Starlight project, you'll see the following folders and files:

.
β”œβ”€β”€ public/
β”œβ”€β”€ src/
β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ assets/
β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ content/
β”‚   β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ docs/
β”‚   β”‚   └── config.ts
β”‚   └── env.d.ts
β”œβ”€β”€ astro.config.mjs
β”œβ”€β”€ package.json
└── tsconfig.json

Starlight looks for .md or .mdx files in the src/content/docs/ directory. Each file is exposed as a route based on its file name.

Images can be added to src/assets/ and embedded in Markdown with a relative link.

Static assets, like favicons, can be placed in the public/ directory.

🧞 Commands

All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:

Command Action
npm install Installs dependencies
npm run dev Starts local dev server at localhost:4321
npm run build Build your production site to ./dist/
npm run preview Preview your build locally, before deploying
npm run astro ... Run CLI commands like astro add, astro check
