# Astral Basic Example

This example shows the first Astral milestone working together:

- MDEx Markdown rendering
- YAML frontmatter
- EEx layouts
- per-page layout selection
- public static files
- Volt-powered JavaScript and CSS
- schema-validated content collections

The homepage layout lists posts from `@collections.posts`; the post itself is rendered from `content/posts/hello-astral.md`.

Edit this file while `mix astral.dev` is running to see a full-page reload.
