Getting Started with This Template

git clone https://github.com/deployn/astro-deploy new-astro-project

To personalize:

• Replace /public/logo.svg
• Update /public/site.webmanifest
• Configure astro.config.mjs
• Customize colors in tailwind.config.mjs

Opting Out of Directus

If not using Directus CMS:

• Remove /src/lib/directus.ts and /src/pages/recipes.astro
• Run pnpm remove @directus/sdk

For Directus usage, ensure public view permission for necessary collections and directus_fields via the Directus dashboard and adjust /src/lib/directus.ts accordingly.
