Welcome to AdAstro
AdAstro is a publishing stack for teams that want modern tooling without giving up control of how their site is built and operated.
At its core, AdAstro combines Astro, React, and Supabase into a CMS that is meant to stay understandable. Posts, pages, media, themes, SEO, localization, and setup all live inside one codebase. That makes it easier to reason about than a site assembled from a long chain of plugins, hosted add-ons, and dashboard-only configuration.
The project is opinionated in one important way: it assumes most teams should start lean. The base product gives you the pieces you need to launch a serious content site, including a guided setup flow, a React-powered admin workspace, fast server-rendered public routes, and a WordPress migration path. It also ships with more advanced capabilities such as AI editorial tools, comments, and newsletters, but those features stay inactive until you decide your workflow is ready for them.
That balance is the point. AdAstro is not trying to be a giant everything-on platform. It is trying to give you a strong core with clear boundaries. If you only need a fast multilingual publishing site with good SEO defaults and a clean content model, you can stop there. If you want to add AI-assisted drafting, comment moderation, or newsletter delivery later, those paths are already built into the product.
The current release also reflects a more mature product than the earliest drafts of this site suggested. Social login now includes GitHub, Google, and Microsoft through Supabase. Optional TOTP MFA can be enabled for sensitive account actions. Public routes are locale-first. The media pipeline supports manual AI alt-text generation for uploaded images and prompt-derived alt text for AI-generated images. The AI suite can assist with drafting, editorial QA, image generation, and locale-aware narration. There is even an authenticated remote MCP endpoint for tools that can safely automate publishing and admin workflows.
If you are evaluating AdAstro for your own project, there are three good places to start. First, look at the homepage and About page for the high-level positioning. Second, browse the article library for focused explanations of editorial workflow, AI usage, performance, and project history. Third, open the repository if you want the exact setup, architecture, migration, and release documentation.
AdAstro is open source and MIT licensed. It is not a hosted service. You deploy it, configure it, and own it. For some teams that will be extra work. For the right teams, it is also the reason the stack is worth using.
