Astro is a web framework for content-driven websites. It serves pages as ready HTML, sends no JavaScript to the browser by default and adds interactive elements (islands) only where they are really needed. Synapse Team builds business websites on Astro, including the agency’s own site, which scores 100/100 in Lighthouse. ## What we build on Astro Pick the service that matches your project, or start the brief and we route it for you. 01 ### Websites Turnkey Astro websites, from structure to launch.

[Frontend development](https://synapseteam.com/services/frontend-development/) ## When we choose Astro Astro is strongest where content comes first and speed drives sales. If a page is mostly text, images and calls to action, we know no faster option. - Marketing sites, corporate sites, landings and blogs - Speed as an SEO factor: Core Web Vitals in the green from day one - Any CMS: Payload, headless WordPress or markdown - React only where interactivity is a must ## When we recommend something else Astro is not right for every project. Here is when we honestly recommend another option, and build it ourselves. - Dashboards and apps with complex logic: Next.js or React - Your team is used to the WordPress admin: classic WordPress - A large catalog with complex order logic: Shopify or Vendure - Real-time collaboration services: a React app with websockets Technologies we build with [Payload CMS](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/payload-cms/) [Vendure](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/vendure/) [Next.js](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/nextjs/) [React](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/react/) [TypeScript](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/typescript/) [Node.js](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/nodejs/) [WordPress](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/wordpress/) [Laravel](https://synapseteam.com/technologies/laravel/) ## AI-fast or classic: you choose the pace AI speeds up development, engineers guarantee quality: a senior engineer reviews every component, text and test before release.

Because the browser has almost nothing to process: pages arrive as ready HTML, JavaScript loads only for the elements that really need it, and images are compressed at build time. Speed is built in from the start, not added later as a separate optimization. ### How much does an Astro website cost? The framework does not change our pricing: - Corporate website on Astro: AI from $2,000 (1–2 weeks), classic from $4,500 (3–4 weeks). - Landing page on Astro: AI from $1,000 (3–5 days), classic from $2,500 (2–3 weeks). Describe your project in the chat and get a precise estimate from the team within one business day. ### Can we edit an Astro site without developers? Yes. We pair Astro with a CMS, usually Payload or headless WordPress, so your team edits texts, cases and news in a normal admin panel while the site stays just as fast for visitors. ### Can you migrate our WordPress site to Astro? Yes, it is a standard project for us: content moves into a CMS or markdown, every old URL gets a redirect, titles and structured data are kept, and the site usually becomes twice as fast. Search rankings are kept by a careful process, not by luck. ### Is Astro suitable for an online store? For the storefront, yes: catalog and product pages benefit from speed. Shopify or Vendure handles the cart and checkout. If the store needs complex logic, we will say so honestly and offer the right stack.
