Aria Builder

Aria Builder lets a team build Astro pages on a visual canvas and manage blog posts and other content in collections from the same Studio. It runs on Cloudflare Workers or on Node with SQLite. The project is in alpha.

Composer, the visual editor, works on the actual Astro page. You edit it on a canvas with an Inspector, responsive viewports and saved components. Collections hold structured content with schemas, templates, relations, drafts and revisions. The design system takes your tokens, semantic classes, fonts and motion settings and publishes only the CSS each page needs. SEO tooling covers sitemaps, feeds, redirects, JSON-LD and site-health checks. Sign-in uses sessions and TOTP, with roles, audit logging and login rate limiting. Email goes out through Cloudflare Email, SMTP or a local preview sink. A built-in AI agent (bring your own key) and an MCP server act with the same role permissions as a Studio user. The homepage says WordPress and Markdown imports are supported. A Studio export writes a standalone Astro project with the pages, components, design system and CMS data. On Cloudflare, one Worker serves the Astro build from static assets. Content lives in D1, cache and sessions in two KV namespaces, and media in R2 with the Images binding. Queues carry email, thumbnail and integration jobs, with dead-letter queues for email and integrations. Two Durable Objects back the Studio agent and live editing. The Worker also binds Workers AI and runs a cron trigger every five minutes. The Deploy to Cloudflare button provisions all of it. Its deploy command applies D1 migrations, creates missing queues and generates internal API secrets.

Built for: Founders, designers and small teams who want to build and edit Astro sites visually, self-hosted in their own Cloudflare account

What you can use it for

• Build and edit an Astro marketing site on a visual canvas
• Run a blog or other structured content with drafts and revisions
• Manage sitemaps, redirects and JSON-LD next to the content
• Move a WordPress or Markdown site into an Astro project
• Export the finished site as a plain Astro project

Deploy

  Deploy to Cloudflare

• CLI

  The repository's wrangler.jsonc ships placeholder resource IDs that the Deploy button normally rewrites. Replace the D1 database_id and the aria_cache and session KV ids with the IDs the create commands print, then run npm run deploy, which applies migrations, creates the queues and deploys the Worker. Open /admin/setup afterwards to create the first administrator.

  git clone https://github.com/ariabuilder/aria.git
  cd aria
  npm install
  npx wrangler login
  npx wrangler d1 create aria-db
  npx wrangler kv namespace create aria-cache
  npx wrangler kv namespace create aria-session
  npx wrangler r2 bucket create aria-media
  npm run deploy

  Copy

Click deploy and give the two KV namespaces distinct titles. Then create the first administrator at /admin/setup.

Good to know

The homepage FAQ says Aria Builder is not production-ready yet. The repository was created in July 2026, has one contributor and has had no commits since August 3, 2026. Webhook automation, third-party OAuth, Figma integration and plugins are not available yet. Cloudflare traffic metrics in Studio need a Cloudflare-managed custom domain and a zone analytics token. TRADEMARKS.md governs use of the name and logo.
