The Astra Buildout course takes you past the basics and into building a complete gym and fitness site from a real brief. You'll shape a homepage designed to win members, a class schedule, and a signup flow, then polish it for mobile through launch. It's the second half of the Astra series that begins with Foundations.
What you'll learn
Knowing a theme's settings is one thing; using them to hit a specific brief is another. This Astra theme tutorial has you make design decisions the way a freelancer would, from choosing when to re-template to building a homepage that converts and handling the honest realities of a membership signup. You'll come away able to take a blank Astra install and turn it into a focused, goal-driven site rather than a generic one. Those are the skills clients actually pay for.
