Astro may soon collect completely anonymous telemetry data about general usage. Participation in this anonymous program is optional, and you may opt-out if you'd prefer not to share any information.
Astro is an ambitious project, and as our userbase becomes more mature, choosing which features to prioritize becomes incresingly difficult.
Collecting telemetry data allows the Astro team to determine exactly which features of Astro are being used and how often specific features are used. With more insightful data about general usage, the team will be able to prioritize upcoming Astro features, improve existing Astro features, and provide much better migration tools.
We will only track general usage information, such as renderer usage and build performance. Specifically, the following will be tracked anonymously:
- Command invoked (
astro build,astro dev, orastro preview) - Version of Astro
- General machine information (macOS/Windows/Linux, if we're in a CI environment, number of CPUs)
- What Astro renderers and Vite plugins are present in your project
- Duration of
astro buildand total number of pages
Consensus: Our community would be comfortable adding support for telemetry, provided the following constraints are met:
