A retro-futuristic landing page for Kaleida, a technology incubator & R&D lab. This project is built with Astro and React, optimized for deployment on Cloudflare Pages.
Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:
/
├── public/
├── src/
│ └── pages/
│ └── index.astro
└── package.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.
There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where we like to put any Astro/React/Vue/Svelte/Preact components.
Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/ directory.
All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:
| Command | Action |
|---|---|
npm install |
Installs dependencies |
npm run dev |
Starts local dev server at localhost:4321 |
npm run build |

npm run preview |

npm run astro ... |
Run CLI commands like astro add, astro check |
npm run astro -- --help |

- Click "Create a project" and select your GitHub repository
- Configure your project with the following settings:
- Framework preset: Astro

Cloudflare Pages will automatically build and deploy your site. The Astro adapter for Cloudflare is already configured in this project.
This project has been specifically optimized for Cloudflare Pages, addressing the compatibility issues that NextJS has with Cloudflare Pages. By using Astro with the Cloudflare adapter, we get:
- Static site generation with dynamic components
- Efficient edge rendering
- No compatibility issues with Cloudflare's environment
- Optimized asset delivery through Cloudflare's CDN
