## Getting Started
First, run the development server:
```bash
npm run dev
```
Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) with your browser to see the result.
## 🚀 Project Structure
Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:
```
/
├── public/
│ └── favicon.svg
├── src/
│ ├── components/
│ │ └── Card.astro
│ ├── layouts/
│ │ └── Layout.astro
│ └── pages/
│ └── index.astro
└── 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.
## 🧞 Commands
All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:
| Command | Action |
| :--------------------- | :------------------------------------------------- |
| `npm install` | Installs dependencies |
| `npm run dev` | Starts local dev server at `localhost:3000` |
| `npm run build` | Build your production site to `./dist/` |
| `npm run preview` | Preview your build locally, before deploying |
| `npm run astro ...` | Run CLI commands like `astro add`, `astro preview` |
