I have added astro-ls to my .replit file but doesn’t seem to do much but add a “format file” option now for .astro files.

can I ask you how you configured .replit to get it to run the astro start up and also the build? thanks!

Bump. Would still love Astro syntax highlighting :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m getting a 404 error from MiloCat’s astro template.
Made my own instead but .astro files still show up in plain text: https://replit.com/@shphrd/astro-htmx-tailwind?v=1

Thanks in advance!
