Template Details
Astro Air is a personal blog theme released by author sun0225SUN, built with Astro and positioned as minimalist. Content is written in Markdown/MDX, with articles placed in the src/content/posts/ directory, and frontmatter defining title, description, publication date, optional update date, tags, and cover image. Site configuration is centralized in src/config/index.ts and src/config/links.ts, while the about page, intro page, and friends links page content are provided by about.mdx, intro.mdx, and links.mdx under src/config/zh(en)/ respectively. The theme includes built-in dark mode, responsive layout, Chinese-English bilingual (i18n), RSS and sitemap, social links, Google Analytics, and Twikoo-based comment integration, with transition and animation effects. Local search is still marked as incomplete in the README, so this feature should not be considered available. The project uses SSG static rendering; the README provides deployment buttons for Vercel and Netlify, and gives steps to sync theme updates by adding an upstream remote via git remote, then fetching and merging. 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, and external services like 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.
