## What is Astro?
**Astro** is a _fresh but familiar_ approach to building websites. Astro combines decades of proven performance best practices with the DX improvements of the component-oriented era.
With Astro, you can use your favorite JavaScript framework and automatically ship the bare-minimum amount of JavaScript—by default, it's none at all!
## Project Status
⚠️ **Astro is still an early beta, missing features and bugs are to be expected!** If you can stomach it, then Astro-built sites are production ready and several production websites built with Astro already exist in the wild. We will update this note once we get closer to a stable, v1.0 release.
## 🔧 Quick Start
> **Important**: Astro is built with [ESM modules](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html) which are not supported in older version of Node.js. The minimum supported version is **14.16.1**.
```bash
# create your project
mkdir new-project-directory
cd new-project-directory
npm init astro
# install your dependencies
npm install
# start the dev server and open your browser
npm run dev
```
### 🚀 Build & Deployment
The default Astro project has the following `scripts` in the `/package.json` file:
```json
{
"scripts": {
"dev": "astro dev",
"build": "astro build",
"preview": "astro preview"
}
}
```
For local development, run:
```
npm run dev
```
To build for production, run the following command:
```
npm run build
```
To deploy your Astro site to production, upload the contents of `/dist` to your favorite static site host.
