AstroPaper 📄

AstroPaper is a minimal, responsive, accessible and SEO-friendly Astro blog theme. This theme is designed and crafted based on my personal blog.

This theme follows best practices and provides accessibility out of the box. Light and dark mode are supported by default. Moreover, additional color schemes can also be configured.

This theme is self-documented _ which means articles/posts in this theme can also be considered as documentations. Read the blog posts or check the README Documentation Section for more info.

🔥 Features

Note: I've manually made the VoiceOver accessibility tests using the default VoiceOver on Mac; and haven't tested using other software. But VoiceOver accessibility enhancements in this website should be working fine on others as well.
