    Houston, We Have Liftoff

    A few years ago, I started eyeing the framework Astro, and it immediately caught my attention. When I refreshed the site last year by updating to a new version of Gatsby, I considered making the switch to Astro at that time. However, I decided against it, as it would require lear…
