Runlog Lite

Free Astro theme for AI agent and devtool startups with a monospace design, light and dark themes, and an MDX blog.

About this template

Runlog Lite is a free, MIT-licensed Astro marketing theme for AI agent, devtool and API products, built with Astro 7 and Tailwind CSS 4, and shipped with a monospace-styled blog. The theme is a technical landing-page and content template: it takes your product copy, logo assets and blog posts, and produces a static marketing site with a homepage, blog index, article pages and a 404 page.

What is Runlog Lite?

Runlog Lite is a free Astro theme for AI agent and developer-tool startups that pairs a monospace, technical aesthetic with a full marketing site and blog. It is built on Astro 7 and Tailwind CSS 4, includes MDX-based blog content, ships both light and dark themes, and is released under the MIT license. It was made by Pavlo Zhydkykh, who also offers a paid Runlog Pro version with more pages.

What makes Runlog Lite stand out?

  • Live agent run log hero — the homepage hero displays a simulated agent run log, matching the theme's AI/developer-tool positioning.
  • Full homepage section set — hero with run log, logo strip, steps schematic, code tabs, feature plus media block, stats, tools grid, testimonial and CTA sections.
  • Blog with search and filtering — a blog index with a featured post, category filter and search, plus article pages with a table of contents.
  • Light and dark themes — a switcher is included, along with a fixed header and a full-screen mobile menu.
  • SEO and AI-readiness extras — sitemap, RSS-ready content, an llms.txt file, Open Graph tags and JSON-LD structured data.
  • Tailwind CSS 4 styling — all layout and typography are utility-driven, with monospace type as the visual signature.
  • Astro 7 and MDX — content is authored in MDX and compiled to a static site by Astro.

Who should use Runlog Lite?

  • AI agent and agent-framework startups: launch a landing page and blog that visually signals a technical developer-focused product.
  • Devtool and API companies: use the code tab, steps schematic and tools grid sections to explain integration and architecture.
  • Developer-facing SaaS founders: ship a free public site quickly and upgrade to Runlog Pro when pricing, docs and changelog pages are needed.
  • Astro and Tailwind developers: start from a working MIT-licensed theme rather than a blank Astro project.

What can you do with Runlog Lite?

  • Launch a developer-tool landing page: fill the hero, logo strip, feature blocks and stats with product specifics and deploy the static output to any host.
  • Publish a technical blog: write posts in MDX and get a searchable, category-filtered blog index with TOCs on article pages.
  • Score machine-readable metadata: inherit the sitemap, Open Graph tags, JSON-LD and llms.txt so search engines and AI crawlers can parse the site.

How does Runlog Lite work?

Install dependencies with npm install, start the dev server with npm run dev, then edit the Astro pages and MDX blog posts to replace the demo content. No CMS or database is required; content is compiled into a static site at build time.

Runlog Lite is free under the MIT license. Runlog Pro is a separate paid package priced at $79, adding pricing, docs, changelog, contact pages, Keystatic CMS, a Figma source file and a commercial license for unlimited projects. Keeping the footer credit is appreciated but not required.
