Ex **When to use Collections: When you need to reuse a single template to generate multiple pages from a larger dataset.** If you just want to generate a single page (ex: a long list of every post on your site) then you can just fetch that data on a normal Astro page without using the Collection API. - ## Collections API To create a new Astro Collection, you must do three things: 1. Create a new file in the `src/pages` directory that starts with the `$` symbol.
