# Astro

**[CSS-Tricks](https://daily.dev/sources/css_tricks)** · 2 min read · 10 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Astro is an in-progress site-builder framework built on top of React and Vue. It ships no JavaScript to the front-end at all, unless you specifically opt-in to it. It has scoped-CSS-by-default like Vue’s <style scoped> , meaning it doesn’t even need CSS Modules since you get all the benefit anyway. It embraces the idea of Islands Architecture — the idea that most sites are composed of static content with only parts of interactive/dynamic content.
