The Starter template provides a basic pages site and the standard structure of an EmDash-powered Astro project. Use it when you want more than an empty shell but do not need the editorial features of the blog template.

Included

• Basic public pages and EmDash runtime configuration.
• Initial schema and content seed for getting a new site running.
• Node.js and Cloudflare Workers template variants.
