Astro·1yAstro 5.3
Astro 5.3 introduces faster page rendering, automatic session storage setup, more control over Netlify bundling, and improved handling of HEAD requests. The new version reduces rendering times through selective asynchronous rendering, simplifies session management by automatically configuring storage, and allows for better file management in Netlify deployments. These updates are accompanied by several bug fixes and community contributions.
Astro·31wAstro 5.15
Astro 5.15 introduces automatic skew protection for Netlify deployments to prevent version mismatches between client and server during deployments. The release adds new adapter APIs that allow hosting platforms to customize fetch headers and asset query parameters, enabling Vercel to also implement reliable skew protection. Font preloading now supports granular filtering by weight, style, and subset for better performance optimization. Additional improvements include a copy button for stack traces in the error overlay and automatic wrangler.jsonc scaffolding for Cloudflare integration.
Astro·45wAstro 5.12
Astro 5.12 introduces TOML support for content loaders, allowing developers to use TOML files alongside Markdown, JSON, and YAML in content collections without additional configuration. The Netlify adapter now integrates Netlify's Vite plugin for local development, providing access to Netlify Image CDN, Blobs, redirects, headers, and environment variables directly in the dev server. An experimental feature allows raw environment variable values without automatic type coercion, aligning with Vite's behavior. The release includes various bug fixes and community contributions.
