FM Solo Starter is a minimal Astro project designed to work with Frontmatter Solo.
It helps you generate backend-ready templates (Twig or PHP) without rewriting your frontend.
What this starter ensures
- One layout per page (no nesting)
- Scalar props only (string, number, boolean, null)
- Global CSS only
- Static assets from /public
This guarantees compatibility with the Frontmatter Solo build step.
What's included:
- Minimal component system (Hero, Section, CTA)
- Base layout (single entry point)
- Example pages: index, contact
- Global SCSS setup
- SEO components (supported set)
- Clean structure for backend integration
Workflow
Validate your project:
npx @withfrontmatter/solo-check
Generate your render pack :
frontmatter solo:build --adapter twig
or
frontmatter solo:build --adapter php
Important
This is not a CMS.
This is not a migration tool.
