Congrats on shipping this.

Any major differentiators between this and Phoenix? I have been getting more into Elixir lately coming from Laravel and React projects. Been having a blast.

The main difference is that Astral is a static site generator. It also doesn’t require Node.js (or a compatible runtime), because it’s built on Volt [1], which in turn uses the QuickBEAM runtime [2].
