We switched from Next.js to Astro (and why it might interest you)
Follow the first article of a series in which we'll try to summarize our journey with Astro, sharing many cool little tricks and details we found out (or totally came up with) in the process.
Not only that: we also moved from the classic Vercel hosting to a completely server-side rendering approach on a VPS, which allows our team an editing experience with immediate feedback, combined with a blazing-fast CDN for the website visitors. To use DatoCMS Cache Tags, the only requirement at the "engine" level of the website is to offer a server-side rendering mode capable of freely manipulating the headers of each page's response, and Astro checks the box. 😜 After this first introduction to the overall architecture of the new site, the upcoming articles will explore in detail many practical topics related to Astro in conjunction with DatoCMS, and how we achieved clear, clean, and highly maintainable code.
