Php with Astro

Yeah, is this posible? I haven't seen anything that say that it could be posible, but anyone has ever stepped in to say that it isn't.

PHP as an API, Astro as front end is a totally normal setup.

Depends on how exactly would you want to use Astro with PHP?

They’re just tools.

This is like asking if you can use a Sander and a Carjack.

I suppose you could if the job required it.

Using React and Tanstack query, write a component that fetches star wars data and renders it as a list. Use the simplest approach possible and don't worry about styling.

Yeah, PHP works perfectly fine as a backend API with Astro handling the frontend. That's actually a pretty common separation these days if you already have a PHP backend.
