Astro SSR Example

npm create astro@latest -- --template ssr

This example showcases server-side rendering with Astro using the @astrojs/node adapter and @astrojs/svelte integration.

🚀 Project Structure

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

/
├── public/
│   ├── favicon.ico
│   ├── favicon.svg
│   └── images/
├── src/
│   ├── components/
│   ├── models/
│   ├── pages/
│   │   ├── api/
│   │   └── products/
│   ├── styles/
│   └── api.ts
├── astro.config.mjs
├── 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. Dynamic routes like products/[id].astro are used to render individual product pages.

There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where we like to put any Astro or framework components.

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

Server-side rendering (SSR)

This project uses the @astrojs/node adapter with output: "server" to render pages on demand and expose API routes from src/pages/api/.

🧞 Commands

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