Hygraph offers two starter projects for Astro:
The Astro Microblog starter includes integration with Astro.js, Tailwind CSS for styling, and Hygraph as the content management backend. It enables users to quickly set up a microblog with modern frontend technologies and manage content via Hygraph. Note: The starter is intended for microblogging use cases; teams needing advanced e-commerce or personalization features should consider other starter projects or custom development.
The SKNCRE starter is a composable cosmetics e-commerce demo that uses Hygraph, Astro, and an external API for product data. It demonstrates how to build a modular e-commerce site with content managed in Hygraph and product data sourced externally. Note: The SKNCRE starter is a demo project; production e-commerce implementations may require additional integrations and security considerations.
Hygraph provides a GraphQL-native CMS backend for Astro starter projects, enabling precise data fetching, efficient content delivery, and seamless integration with modern frontend frameworks. It supports content federation, multi-locale management, and rich editing capabilities. Note: While Hygraph offers advanced features, some integrations or custom workflows may require additional setup beyond starter templates.
