Personal Hub is an open-source Astro template created by itsteddydev that centralizes personal or professional information — projects, links, and profile details — into a single customizable web page.
What is Personal Hub?
Personal Hub is an Astro-based template that produces a static personal hub website. The template takes user-supplied profile data, links, and widget configurations as input and outputs a responsive, mobile-friendly page that can be deployed to Vercel. It is distributed under the MIT license, allowing free use and modification.
Key Features
- Centralized Management — Access all your information from a single unified interface instead of maintaining separate pages for bio, projects, and links.
- Customization — Add, edit, or remove personal information, links, and modules from the running site without modifying core code.
- Integrations — Connect with various external platforms and services; the README lists integrations as a stated feature, though specific providers are not named.
- Security — Protect your data with authentication and authorization built into the template, as described in the README.
- Astro Framework — Built on Astro, a static site generator that outputs plain HTML and ships minimal JavaScript.
- Tailwind CSS Styling — Uses Tailwind CSS for utility-first styling and responsive design across viewports.
- Light and Dark Views — Repository screenshots show both a light main view and multiple dark-mode variants, indicating theme support.
- Vercel Deployment — Deploy the generated static site directly to Vercel, the platform listed in the project's technologies.
