Capture before rebuilding
Archive the source, crawl every public route, inventory documents and images, record metadata, and identify the hidden services behind forms, search, redirects, and interactive components.
Astro migration framework
An Astro migration is a system replacement, not a homepage redesign. The Go for Launch framework starts with evidence from the source site and ends with verified production behavior.
What the process produces
Archive the source, crawl every public route, inventory documents and images, record metadata, and identify the hidden services behind forms, search, redirects, and interactive components.
Model real content patterns with typed components and collections. Keep platform-specific extraction separate from rendering so the new site remains maintainable after the migration.
Compare route families, navigation, responsive behavior, metadata, structured data, accessibility, and browser behavior. Record intentional improvements so they are not mistaken for omissions.
