Template Details
Stellar is a documentation site theme for Astro, described in its repository as a "modern, type-safe Astro documentation theme." It is suited for building technical documentation sites with content written in Markdown or MDX. Capabilities listed in the README include dark mode, type-safe i18n, fuse.js search, Tailwind styling, the View Transitions API, Shiki code highlighting, and custom import paths.
The theme provides an online demo site (stellar-theme.netlify.app) and points to the introduction page on that site as getting-started documentation, so installation and configuration details should follow the official documentation; this page does not speculate on them. The code is released under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, but third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons require separate license verification; external services such as domains and hosting may incur additional charges.

How this score is calculated
Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.
The catalog identifies Astro as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
