Care to explain?

Astro is trying to position itself in opposition to things like Next.js or Nuxt wich are specifically marketed as application frameworks?

And the architecture is more suited to something like a content site, because of the content collections, built-in MDX support, SSR, image handling, and server routing?



Sure, but maybe you need to go first.

What do you mean when you say "a content site"?

To me, "content" == "literally anything that resides in the DOM".

But, clearly we aren't talking about that (I hope).


They are referring to static non-interactive content (basically images and text) in sites like blogs, marketing site, docs, etc. as opposed to highly interactive, and dynamic components, think Facebook, Figma, etc.
