We made this template to give you a way to spin up an Astro app and have it ready to be deployed to Netlify. - Here is the repo: [https://github.com/netlify-templates/astro-quickstart](https://github.com/netlify-templates/astro-quickstart) - you can check it out live here: [https://astro-quickstart.netlify.app/](https://astro-quickstart.netlify.app/) - & watch the walkthrough video [on Youtube](https://youtu.be/SknFflQVOys)! Oh, hey, check out this button: [![Deploy to Netlify Button](https://www.netlify.com/img/deploy/button.svg)](https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/netlify-templates/astro-quickstart) It will walk you through the process of creating a new repo using this template and deploying it to Netlify. ## Click ‘n’ Go There are a few ways to use and deploy this template so I thought I’d walk you through the clickiest (not a word but come on how cute is it). 1. Copy the template repo by clicking the ‘Use this template’ button towards the top-right of the [repo page](https://github.com/netlify-templates/astro-quickstart). ![arrow pointing to use this template button](https://res.cloudinary.com/dzkoxrsdj/image/upload/v1652668899/CleanShot_2022-05-15_at_21.47.01_2x_1_ilcxpd.jpg) 2. Head to your Netlify dashboard and click the ‘Add new site’ dropdown menu and click the ‘Import an existing project’ option. ![Netlify dashboard to add new site](https://res.cloudinary.com/dzkoxrsdj/image/upload/v1652717552/CleanShot_2022-05-16_at_12.10.20_2x_efz4fn.jpg) This will take you to a place to sign in to GitHub and find the new repo just created in step 1. ![pick GitHub](https://res.cloudinary.com/dzkoxrsdj/image/upload/v1652718453/CleanShot_2022-05-16_at_12.16.00_2x_sgzbzm.jpg) ![search for your repo](https://res.cloudinary.com/dzkoxrsdj/image/upload/v1652718515/CleanShot_2022-05-16_at_12.16.33_2x_u8uvml.jpg) 3. Check the site settings (coming in from the template’s `netlify.toml` config file) and click ‘Deploy site’ ![site settings menu](https://res.cloudinary.com/dzkoxrsdj/image/upload/v1652718630/CleanShot_2022-05-15_at_23.04.59_2x_i55kbr.jpg) 4. Click the site url and look at your amazing, live site! ![the live project link](https://res.cloudinary.com/dzkoxrsdj/image/upload/v1652720779/CleanShot_2022-05-16_at_12.41.33_2x_1_mnei4x.jpg) If you already had an existing Astro site you could start at step 2 and choose your site from your list of repos. ## Rest Your Clicker, You’re Done! With a couple clicks and a few keystrokes you have an Astro site and it’s deployed for all the world to see. We’re excited to see what you create! Have an idea for another quickstart template?
