Astra is one of the most popular and also one of the fastest-growing WordPress themes of today.
What sets it apart is that it’s a performance-oriented minimal theme that only gives you very basic features out the box, albeit in a very functional wrapper. You can pick which modules you need and activate/deactivate them accordingly.
Another advantage of Astra’s is that it’s compatible with the most popular page builders in the market (Elementor, Beaver Builder, Brizy). There are also starter sites available for each of the builders. All this means that you can build a website with Astra quickly, and then also customize it to fit your needs 100%. However, the out-the-box design of the theme isn’t much until you import a starter site on top of it.
