Astro 6.1 ships several improvements: codec-specific Sharp image defaults let you configure JPEG, WebP, AVIF, and PNG encoding once in your Astro config instead of per-image. SmartyPants now supports full configuration for non-English typographic conventions like French guillemets and German quotation marks. The i18n fallback routes are now exposed to integrations via the `astro:routes:resolved` hook, and `@astrojs/sitemap` automatically includes these fallback pages. Additional fixes include smoother mobile view transitions (skipping animations during native browser swipe gestures), a Vite 8 compatibility warning, React hydration bug fixes, and correct CSRF origin checking behind TLS-terminating reverse proxies.
