FM Solo Starter

Astro starter designed to generate Twig or PHP templates with Frontmatter Solo.


Cost

Free


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.

It’s a build step: Astro β†’ Twig / PHP templates.
