Here are some key concepts and migration strategies to help you get started. Use the rest of our docs and our Discord community to keep going!
Key Similarities between Next.js and Astro
Section titled Key Similarities between Next.js and AstroNext.js and Astro share some similarities that will help you migrate your project:
- The syntax of
.astro
files is similar to JSX. Writing Astro should feel familiar. - Astro projects can also be SSG or SSR with page-level prerendering.
- Astro uses file-based routing, and allows specially named pages to create dynamic routes.
- Astro is component-based, and your markup structure will be similar before and after your migration.
- Astro has official integrations for React, Preact, and Solid so you can use your existing JSX components. Note that in Astro, these files must have a
.jsx
or.tsx
extension. - Astro has support for installing NPM packages, including React libraries. Many of your existing dependencies will work in Astro.
Key Differences between Next.js and Astro
Section titled Key Differences between Next.js and AstroWhen you rebuild your Next.js site in Astro, you will notice some important differences:
-
Next.js is a React single-page app, and uses
index.js
as your project’s root. Astro is a multi-page site, andindex.astro
is your home page. -
.astro
components are not written as exported functions that return page templating. Instead, you’ll split your code into a “code fence” for your JavaScript and a body exclusively for the HTML you generate. -
content-driven: Astro was designed to showcase your content and to allow you to opt-in to interactivity only as needed. An existing Next.js app might be built for high client-side interactivity and may require advanced Astro techniques to include items that are more challenging to replicate using
.astro
components, such as dashboards.
Convert your Next.js Project
Section titled Convert your Next.js ProjectEach project migration will look different, but there are some common actions you will perform when converting from Next.js to Astro.
Create a new Astro project
Section titled Create a new Astro projectUse the create astro
command for your package manager to launch Astro’s CLI wizard or choose a community theme from the Astro Theme Showcase.
You can pass a --template
argument to the create astro
command to start a new Astro project with one of our official starters (e.g. docs
, blog
, portfolio
). Or, you can start a new project from any existing Astro repository on GitHub.
Then, copy your existing Next project files over to your new Astro project in a separate folder outside of src
.
Visit https://astro.new for the full list of official starter templates, and links for opening a new project in StackBlitz, CodeSandbox, or Gitpod.
Install integrations (optional)
Section titled Install integrations (optional)You may find it useful to install some of Astro’s optional integrations to use while converting your Next project to Astro:
-
@astrojs/react: to reuse some existing React UI components in your new Astro site, or keep writing with React components.
-
@astrojs/mdx: to bring existing MDX files from your Next project, or to use MDX in your new Astro site.
Put your source code in src
Section titled Put your source code in srcFollowing Astro’s project structure:
-
Keep Next’s
public/
folder untouched.Astro uses the
public/
directory for static assets, just like Next. There is no change needed to this folder, nor its contents. -
Copy or Move Next’s other files and folders (e.g.
pages
,styles
etc.) into Astro’ssrc/
folder as you rebuild your site, following Astro’s project structure.Like Next, Astro’s
src/pages/
folder is a special folder used for file-based routing. All other folders are optional, and you can organize the contents of yoursrc/
folder any way you like. Other common folders in Astro projects includesrc/layouts/
,src/components
,src/styles
,src/scripts
.
The Astro config file
Section titled The Astro config fileAstro has a configuration file at the root of your project called astro.config.mjs
. This is used only for configuring your Astro project and any installed integrations, including SSR adapters.
Tips: Convert JSX files to .astro
files
Section titled Tips: Convert JSX files to .astro filesHere are some tips for converting a Next .js
component into a .astro
component:
-
Use the returned JSX of the existing Next.js component function as the basis for your HTML template.
-
Change any Next or JSX syntax to Astro or to HTML web standards. This includes
<Link>
,<Script>
,{children}
, andclassName
, for example. -
Move any necessary JavaScript, including import statements, into a “code fence” (
---
). Note: JavaScript to conditionally render content is often written inside the HTML template directly in Astro. -
Use
Astro.props
to access any additional props that were previously passed to your Next function. -
Decide whether any imported components also need to be converted to Astro. With the official integration installed, you can use existing React components in your Astro file. But, you may want to convert them to
.astro
components, especially if they do not need to be interactive! -
Replace
getStaticProps()
with import statements orAstro.glob()
to query your local files. Usefetch()
to fetch external data.
See an example of a Next .js
file converted step-by-step.

Migrating Layout Files
Section titled Migrating Layout FilesYou may find it helpful to start by converting your Next.js layouts and templates into Astro layout components.
Next has two different methods for creating layout files, each of which handles layouts differently than Astro:
-
The
pages
directory
Each Astro page explicitly requires <html>
, <head>
, and <body>
tags to be present, so it is common to reuse a layout file across pages. Astro uses a <slot />
for page content, with no import statement required. Note the standard HTML templating, and direct access to <head>
:
Migrating from Next.js’ pages
directory
Section titled Migrating from Next.js’ pages directoryYour Next project may have a pages/_document.jsx
file that imports React components to customize your app’s <head>
:
-
Make a new Astro layout file using only the returned JSX.
-
Replace any React components with
<html>
,<head>
,<slot>
, and other HTML standard tags.
Migrating from Next.js’ /app
directory
Section titled Migrating from Next.js’ /app directoryNext.js’ app/
directory layout files are created with two files: a layout.jsx
file to customize the <html>
and <body>
contents, and a head.jsx
file to customize the <head>
element contents.
-
Make a new Astro layout file using only the returned JSX.
-
Replace both these files with a single Astro layout file that contains a page shell (
<html>
,<head>
, and<body>
tags) and a<slot/>
instead of React’s{children}
prop:
Migrating Pages and Posts
Section titled Migrating Pages and PostsIn Next.js, your posts either live in /pages
or /app/routeName/page.jsx
.
In Astro, all your page content must live within src/
, in either src/pages
or src/content
.
React pages
Section titled React pagesYour existing Next JSX (.js
) pages will need to be converted from JSX files to .astro
pages. You cannot use an existing JSX page file in Astro.
These .astro
pages must be located within src/pages/
and will have page routes generated automatically based on their file path.
Markdown and MDX pages
Section titled Markdown and MDX pagesAstro has built-in support for Markdown and an optional integration for MDX files. You can reuse any existing Markdown and MDX files, but they may require some adjustments to their frontmatter, such as adding Astro’s special layout
frontmatter property. You will no longer need to manually create pages for each Markdown-generated route. These files can be placed within src/pages/
to take advantage of automatic file-based routing.
Alternatively, you can use content collections in Astro to store and manage your content. When part of a collection, Markdown and MDX files will live in folders within src/content/
. You will retrieve the content yourself and generate those pages dynamically.
Migrating Tests
Section titled Migrating TestsAs Astro outputs raw HTML, it is possible to write end-to-end tests using the output of the build step. Any end-to-end tests written previously might work out-of-the-box if you have been able to match the markup of your Next site. Testing libraries such as Jest and React Testing Library can be imported and used in Astro to test your React components.
See Astro’s testing guide for more.
Reference: Convert Next.js Syntax to Astro
Section titled Reference: Convert Next.js Syntax to AstroNext Links to Astro
Section titled Next Links to AstroConvert any Next <Link to="">
, <NavLink>
etc. components to HTML <a href="">
tags.
Astro does not use any special component for links, although you are welcome to build your own <Link>
component. You can then import and use this <Link>
just as you would any other component.
Next Imports to Astro
Section titled Next Imports to AstroUpdate any file imports to reference relative file paths exactly. This can be done using import aliases, or by writing out a relative path in full.
Note that .astro
and several other file types must be imported with their full file extension.
Next Children Props to Astro
Section titled Next Children Props to AstroConvert any instances of {children}
to an Astro <slot />
. Astro does not need to receive {children}
as a function prop and will automatically render child content in a <slot />
.
React components that pass multiple sets of children can be migrated to an Astro component using named slots.
See more about specific <slot />
usage in Astro.
Next Data Fetching to Astro
Section titled Next Data Fetching to AstroConvert any instances of getStaticProps()
to either Astro.glob()
or getCollection()
/getEntryBySlug()
in order to access data from other files in your project source. To fetch remote data, use fetch()
.
These data requests are made in the frontmatter of the Astro component and use top-level await.
See more about local files imports with Astro.glob()
, querying using the Collections API or fetching remote data.
Next Styling to Astro
Section titled Next Styling to AstroYou may need to replace any CSS-in-JS libraries (e.g. styled-components) with other available CSS options in Astro.
If necessary, convert any inline style objects (style={{ fontWeight: "bold" }}
) to inline HTML style attributes (style="font-weight:bold;"
). Or, use an Astro <style>
tag for scoped CSS styles.
Tailwind is supported after installing the Tailwind integration. No changes to your existing Tailwind code are required!
See more about Styling in Astro.
Next Image Plugin to Astro
Section titled Next Image Plugin to AstroConvert any Next <Image />
components to Astro’s own image component in .astro
or .mdx
files, or to a standard HTML <img>
/ JSX <img />
tag as appropriate in your React components.
Astro’s <Image />
component works in .astro
and .mdx
files only. See a full list of its component attributes and note that several will differ from Next’s attributes.
In React (.jsx
) components, use standard JSX image syntax (<img />
). Astro will not optimize these images, but you can install and use NPM packages for more flexibility.
You can learn more about using images in Astro in the Images Guide.
Guided example: Next data fetching to Astro
Section titled Guided example: Next data fetching to AstroHere is an example of Next.js Pokédex data fetch converted to Astro.
pages/index.js
fetches and displays a list of the first 151 Pokémon using the REST PokéAPI.
Here’s how to recreate that in src/pages/index.astro
, replacing getStaticProps()
with fetch()
.
-
Identify the return() JSX.
-
Create
src/pages/index.astro
Use the return value of the Next function. Convert any Next or React syntax to Astro, including changing the case of any HTML global attributes.
Note that:
-
.map
just works! -
className
becomesclass
. -
<Link>
becomes<a>
. -
The
<> </>
fragment is not required in Astro templating. -
key
is a React attribute, and is not an attribute ofli
in Astro.
-
-
Add any needed imports, props, and JavaScript
Note that:
- the
getStaticProps
function is no longer needed. Data from the API is fetched directly in the code fence. - A
<Layout>
component is imported and wraps the page templating.
