This is the source code for my blog, jcbl.ws. It's built with Astro, a new static site generator that uses React components, JSX, and TypeScript.

🚀 Project Structure

Inside of this blog, you'll see the following folders and files:

├── public/
├── src/
│   ├── components/
│   ├── content/
│   │   ├── blog/
│   │   └── talks/
│   ├── layouts/
│   └── pages/
├── astro.config.mjs
├── README.md
├── package.json
└── tsconfig.json

Astro looks for .astro or .md files in the src/pages/ directory. Each page is exposed as a route based on its file name.

There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where I like to put any Astro/React components.

The src/content/ directory contains "collections" of related Markdown and MDX documents. Use getCollection() to retrieve posts from src/content/blog/, and type-check your frontmatter using an optional schema. See Astro's Content Collections docs to learn more.

Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/ directory.
