16## 🚀 Project Structure
17
18Inside of your Astro + Starlight project, you'll see the following folders and files:
19
20```
21.
22├── public/
23├── src/
24│ ├── assets/
25│ ├── content/
26│ │ ├── docs/
27│ │ └── config.ts
28│ └── env.d.ts
29├── astro.config.mjs
30├── package.json
31└── tsconfig.json
32```
33
34Starlight looks for `.md` or `.mdx` files in the `src/content/docs/` directory. Each file is exposed as a route based on its file name.
35
36Images can be added to `src/assets/` and embedded in Markdown with a relative link.
37
38Static assets, like favicons, can be placed in the `public/` directory.
