This is an Astro 6.x SSG-first agency and small-business theme. It provides a component system, design token architecture, content collections, and a validation pipeline for building production informational and marketing websites. This topic collects everything you need to orient yourself: the theme overview, onboarding guide, documentation standards, and project governance.
Who this is for
- Implementors — building or customizing a site using this theme. Start with the theme overview, then move to configuration and design tokens.
- Developers — extending the theme with new components, layouts, or integrations. Start with the theme overview, then the platform topic for architecture and validation.
- AI agents — generating code, content, or configuration for sites built on this theme. Start with the theme overview, then the file ownership model, validation pipeline, and documentation guide.
- Editors — managing page content, blog posts, and site copy. Start with the theme overview, then the content authoring guide.
- Anyone proposing changes — understanding the governance model, change control process, and requirements lifecycle before modifying project scope or standards.
Key concepts
- Theme overview — what the project is, its tech stack, and how the major systems fit together. The single best starting point for any audience.
- Onboarding — step-by-step guide for getting a local development environment running and making your first changes.
- Site setup — bootstrapping a new downstream site from the core theme: repository creation, remote wiring, configuration, and pre-deploy validation.
- Documentation guide — how to write, structure, and maintain docs in the theme-docs system, including frontmatter schema, ordering conventions, and the deprecation process.
- Governance and change control — how decisions are made, the frozen charter’s role, the requirements lifecycle, and approval workflows for commits and status changes.
- Requirements catalog — the canonical specification layer: how requirements are structured, what statuses mean, and how to use the requirements browser.
