The Best Headless CMS for Astro
Builder's Visual Headless CMS works with Astro through our Qwik framework to create incredibly fast websites. The combination allows content editors to build scalable sites in minutes with fewer engineering ticket dependencies.
WHY
Builder and Astro?
Astro and Builder.io together provide an incredibly fast, flexible, and scalable web development stack. Astro's static site framework focuses on speed and simplicity while providing flexibility to use multiple front-end frameworks. Builder’s visual headless CMS allows content to visually build content models while developers consume the content as JSON. This decoupled architecture simplifies workflows, boosts scalability and performance through CDNs, and offers a great developer experience.

We love our builders
See why teams are moving and optimizing faster with Builder
One of my clients just did a demo of Builder. Wow, I’m impressed.
Drag and drop React components. Configure their props. Dynamic routes. Styling overrides. All using custom React components.
Quite slick.
TBH I haven't seen a company like this for a long time. They not only have a great commercial product but build breakthrough OS projects that move the web space into the right direction, which is even more important to me. Huge respect from me ;)
With the help of Builder, my team no longer needs to bother me again for some tasks like just updating the font size from 50px to 52px
I’m a huge fan of Builder! My team at Zapier leans on it to build a platform for the marketing team to create some of our highest touch pages, keeping in alignment with our design systems. It’s got a lot of really fantastic built-in functionality and is super easy to use! ✨
We rely on it pretty heavily at Everlane. From an engineering perspective, their integration is really well thought out, super developer friendly. From a CMS perspective, I honestly couldn’t find anything else with the same depth of tooling Builder has.
I've heard of Builder being successfully deployed for a wider range of usecases, and it works really well with Next.js
Builder, an AI-powered headless CMS, looks absolutely incredible! 🤯

Lastly, Builder’s Visual Headless CMS can be incrementally adopted for a better user experience. You don't have to rebuild your frontend from scratch—you can build on top of what you already have. And if you decide to replatform, it's easy: content created in Builder's visual content management system will seamlessly migrate to your new platform.
