Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:
/
āāā public/
ā āāā favicon.svg
āāā src/
ā āāā components/
ā ā āāā Card.astro
ā ā āāā Main.svelte
ā āāā layouts/
ā ā āāā Layout.astro
ā āāā pages/
ā āāā index.astro
āāā package.json
Astro looks for .astro or .md files in the src/pages/ directory. Each page is exposed as a route based on its file name.
There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where we like to put any Astro/React/Vue/Svelte/Preact components.
Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/ directory.
All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:
