Creating Pages in Astro

This project benchmark requires you to demonstrate learning in astro. Namely:

create a base template:
- use the template to control the information structure of your pages,
- paying special attention to the contents and kinds of information each page creates
create Navigation, Header, and Footer components:
- using nav, header, and footer elements
- the Navigation control needs to feature at least a Home and About link
integrate these components into your pages for a unified, cross-site experience
adds content to these pages using section, main, and p, img (with alt text) tags appropriately
- see our course textbook The Coding Workbook for more on these tags

To run tests for this assignment:

Test	Command
gatorgrade	`uv run gatorgrade`
Playwright	`npx playwright test`

Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:

/
├── public/
├── src/
│   └── pages/
│       └── index.astro
└── package.json

Astro looks for .astro or .md files in the src/pages/ directory. Each page is exposed as a route based on its file name.

There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where we like to put any Astro/React/Vue/Svelte/Preact components.

Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/ directory.

All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:

Command	Action
`npm install`	Installs dependencies
`npm run dev`	Starts local dev server at `localhost:4321`
`npm run build`	Build your production site to `./dist/`
`npm run preview`	Preview your build locally, before deploying
`npm run astro ...`	Run CLI commands like `astro add`, `astro check`
`npm run astro -- --help`	Get help using the Astro CLI
