Astro Full Starter is an open-source Astro v6 boilerplate that bundles React 19, Tailwind CSS v4, and built-in English/Spanish internationalization so you can scaffold a content-focused website within minutes.
What is Astro Full Starter?
Astro Full Starter is a base Astro project that ships with Astro v6.0.8, React v19.2.4, Tailwind CSS v4.2.2, Lucide React v1.7.0, and an i18n setup covering English and Spanish. Its core function is to give you a preconfigured starting point for content-focused websites: you clone the repository, add your own pages and content, and the included tooling handles SEO, sitemap, robots.txt, fonts, and responsive styling. The template is MIT-licensed and currently has 18 stars on GitHub.
Key Features
- Preconfigured SEO stack — Integrates astro-seo v1.1.0 for meta management, astro-sitemap v3.7.1 for sitemap.xml generation, and astro-robots-txt v1.0.0 for robots.txt, all wired in astro.config.mjs.
- English/Spanish i18n — Uses Astro's built-in routing with a LanguageSelector component in src/components/LanguageSelector.astro and translation utilities in src/i18n/ui.ts, so you get localized URLs and UI strings from the start.
- React 19 integration — React v19.2.4 works alongside Astro's Islands Architecture for adding interactive components to static pages.
- Tailwind CSS v4 styling — Utility-first CSS with tailwind.config.js and global styles under src/styles; responsive design is built in.
- Optimized web fonts — Includes @fontsource packages for Geist Mono and Roboto, so fonts are self-hosted and performance-friendly.
- TypeScript throughout — tsconfig.json is included; pages, components, and i18n utilities are typed.
- Complete starter structure — Ships with index.astro, a 404.astro, a Spanish pages folder, layouts, components, and a public/ directory for static assets.
