How Astro is built
SMRTR summary
Astro's build pipeline is more complex than it looks. Starting from the CLI, it loads config, scans routes, syncs content collections, then uses a Rust compiler to transform .astro files into JavaScript modules. Vite bundles server and client code separately, the renderer produces HTML using the same path for static and server pages, and adapters handle deployment packaging.
