Tooling

Of course, one would need to be able to edit this Guide to update it.

I use Starlight, which in turn is based on Astro.

As a package manager, I currently use pnpm. Below are the commands for package managers I am using / have used in the past.

Commands

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

pnpm

Command	Action
pnpm install	Installs dependencies + creates backup yarn.lock
pnpm dev	Starts local dev server at localhost:4321
pnpm build	Build your production site to ./dist/
pnpm preview	Preview your build locally, before deploying
pnpm astro ...	Run CLI commands like astro add, astro check, astro sync
pnpm dlx @astrojs/upgrade	Update Starlight and therefore Astro, etc.

bun

Command	Action
bun install	Installs dependencies + creates backup yarn.lock
bunx --bun astro dev	Starts local dev server at localhost:4321
bunx --bun astro build	Build your production site to ./dist/
bunx --bun astro preview	Preview your build locally, before deploying
bunx --bun astro astro ...	Run CLI commands like astro add, astro check, astro sync
bunx @astrojs/upgrade	Update Starlight and therefore Astro, etc.

Tip

If you omit --bun, bun will run the command using node instead of bun, which in my case made it work under Windows.
