The origin story of astro-content-hub — how an open-source organization's need for a shared content home grew into a reusable, upgradeable static-site template.
Open Source Software

Our Focus
We believe the best tools are built with awareness — of context, of people, and of the systems we all share. Our work sits at the intersection of cognitive science, spatial computing, and developer experience.
Interfaces and algorithms shaped by how we actually see, hear, and process the world around us.
Software that understands relationships between objects, environments, and the people moving through them.
Tools designed to reduce friction, restore attention, and support healthier relationships with technology.
Products
The template this hub is built on — a content hub that aggregates docs and posts from many repositories.
