The Astro Technology Company team — the creators of the Astro web framework — is joining Cloudflare. We’re doubling down on making Astro the best framework for content-driven websites, today and in the years to come.

Cloudflare's platform is a leading provider of internet security and performance solutions, offering insights into web security, content delivery, and DNS management. Through documentation, blog posts, and webinars, Cloudflare provides insights into protecting websites and applications from cyber threats and improving performance. Developers and IT professionals can learn about CDN (Content Delivery Network), DDoS mitigation, and firewall configurations to secure and accelerate web traffic.

Cloudflare

Cloudflare has acquired The Astro Technology Company, bringing the Astro web framework team in-house while keeping the project open source and MIT-licensed. Astro will continue to run on any platform, with all full-time employees joining Cloudflare to work on the framework. Astro 6 is entering beta with a redesigned development server powered by Vite's Environments API, enabling local development using the same runtime as production (including workerd for Cloudflare). The release also stabilizes Live Content Collections for real-time data updates and adds first-class Content Security Policy support. Astro has grown to 1.5M weekly npm downloads and powers sites for major brands like Porsche, IKEA, and OpenAI, plus platforms like Webflow Cloud and Wix Vibe.
