## 🚀 Project Structure
Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:
```
/
├── public/
2022-08-17 15:19:04 -05:00
│ └── favicon.svg
2022-04-26 19:37:58 -05:00
├── src/
│ ├── components/
2022-08-22 13:26:44 -05:00
│ │ └── Card.astro
│ ├── layouts/
2022-04-26 19:37:58 -05:00
│ │ └── Layout.astro
│ └── 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.
2022-04-26 19:37:58 -05:00
Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the `public/` directory.
