Switching to content-driven framework

[bartosz-skejcik]

As a front-end developer, I'm wandering. Why don't we switch to, for example Astro.js? It's a framework built exactly for the type of websites that Dev Encyclopedia is.

I'd be more than happy to make the first move in switching to Astro.js. I could write all the content that there is now and leave a detailed documentation for adding new things

Agree with you, i also thought the same. Could be better to move next js or astro

[bartosz-skejcik]

I think there is no need to move to next.js, as it's a framework for highly sophisticated and complex apps. Here we are building a simple web app and all the data is already pre-rendered because it's static.

@Buzzpy what’s your take on that?

I think that'd be awesome. Please post your opinion to my latest comment on issue #38 so that can all come to a conclusion there!

Thanks again for your efforts.

Here is a link for the astro website where you can read more about it. https://astro.build/

I made the switch already ;) here is the converted site. tell me if you want to go through with it :)

The CI/CD will work with astro cause when building the project it outputs clean html, css and js 😃

We can also improve the functionality further cause we can add a react component for the modal so it's easier to manage cause for now im using the data.json that @4rnv provided in his idea

It's done! We are deploying the Astro-integrated site tomorrow!
