Boolean props follow the HTML presence/absence semantics.
- We stick close to standard HTML behavior: flag="false" is treated as
true in most cases. Standard bare attributes disabled and required for
form fields are interpreted as true with non-existence as false.
- The use-cases for aria-*="false" and contenteditable="false" are also
supported by typing them in the JS class as string ("true" | "false").
This "true" | "false" opt-in is types-only. At runtime it's just a
string, and strings already serialize literally and are never removed —
so the enumerated/aria path needs no runtime code.

🚀 Project Structure
Inside of your Astro + Starlight project, you'll see the following folders and files:
.

├── src/
│ ├── assets/
│ ├── content/
│ │ ├── docs/
│ └── content.config.ts
├── astro.config.mjs
├── package.json
└── tsconfig.json
Starlight looks for .md or .mdx files in the src/content/docs/ directory. Each file is exposed as a route based on its file name.
Images can be added to src/assets/ and embedded in Markdown with a relative link.
Static assets, like favicons, can be placed in the public/ directory.
