Content with a clear purpose
Structured pages and civic content, with named owners, review dates and a publishing model agreed with your team. The local preview illustrates a notice review; a complete CMS integration is not demonstrated here.
The platform direction
Public-facing clarity.
Behind-the-scenes care.
A website is a public service and a shared publishing responsibility. Astra Civic is being shaped to serve both sides of that relationship.
Municipal websites first.
Content, services and governance shaped around public needs.Read the labels. “Illustrated locally” means functional in this website’s fictional preview. “Proposed core” and “planned” describe product direction, not verified production features. See the full status.
01 / A connected civic foundation
Useful for residents.
Workable for your team.
Start with the content people need, then define the controls and operating model that keep it dependable.
A directory built around tasks
The walkthrough demonstrates service categories, search and task details using fixed sample data. Production service models, integrations and application handling need to be scoped and verified.
Timely notices, with context
A local draft-to-preview notice flow shows how review can become part of publishing. Scheduling, approvals, audit history and emergency escalation remain proposed platform scope.
Council information, easier to follow
A coherent home for meeting dates, agendas, minutes and documents. Document formats, records retention and connections to existing council systems require discovery.
Useful search, honest results
Try filtering the sample service directory. Full-site indexing, document search, synonyms, ranking and measurable search quality require implementation and testing.
A local voice, across languages
Design for multilingual content, local terminology and regional date formats. Translation workflow, right-to-left support and language coverage must be agreed and tested.
Access considered from the start
Use semantic structure, clear focus states and reduced-motion support. Accessibility needs content governance, assistive-technology testing and an independent audit; no WCAG certification is claimed.
Ownership you can understand
Agree data exports, media handover, hosting access and transition responsibilities in writing. The owner retains platform IP. A licence does not transfer platform ownership.
02 / Make it tangible
Explore the publishing idea.
Switch to Publishing view. Edit a sample notice, complete its review, then see the change in the resident preview. Everything stays in your browser’s temporary state.
