Astra is one of the most popular and lightweight WordPress themes, trusted by over 2 million websites worldwide. It is a multipurpose theme built for speed, flexibility, and full customization. Whether you’re building a blog, portfolio, online store, or business website, Astra offers the perfect foundation that integrates well with major page builders like Elementor, Beaver Builder, Brizy, and Gutenberg.
One of Astra’s standout features is its performance-first approach. The default theme installation loads in less than 0.5 seconds, thanks to its vanilla JavaScript usage and optimized code. It doesn’t rely on jQuery, which helps avoid render-blocking issues and enhances overall site speed.
Astra comes with dozens of pre-built Starter Templates, which allow users to launch a beautiful website in minutes without any coding skills. These templates are ideal for various niches including agencies, eCommerce, education, health, and blogging. Users can easily import templates using the Astra Starter Templates plugin.
The free version of Astra is generous, offering powerful layout controls, header and footer options, blog archive settings, and color typography customization. For advanced users or agencies, the Astra Pro addon unlocks even more features like sticky headers, mega menus, WooCommerce styling, custom layouts, and advanced blog layouts.
What makes Astra unique is how developer-friendly it is. It supports hooks and filters, offers clean code, and works seamlessly with major plugins like LearnDash, LifterLMS, and WooCommerce. It is also SEO-optimized with built-in schema markup, translation-ready, and accessible (WCAG 2.0 compliant).
