The Build Log #1 - January 2026 Edition

Welcome to the first edition of The Build Log!

This is a new monthly update where I'll share what I've been working on, the releases that have shipped, exciting milestones, and more.

Let's dive into what happened this month!

Releases

This month, 4 releases have been launched:

• SEO in Next.js v1.0.0: introduced as a formal library, rather than a collection of files, with various components and utilities to generate everything from sitemap.xml and llms.txt to JSON-LD and more.
• Starlight Page Actions v0.4.0: introduced internationalization of plugin texts for multiple languages and made changes to achieve cleaner generated markdown that LLMs can process better, using fewer tokens.
• Starlight UI Tweaks v0.2.1: fixed a minor bug where the year in the footer was not updating correctly.
• SEO in Astro v1.0.0-beta.0: introduced as a formal library, rather than a collection of files, with an integration for Astro that generates robots.txt, sitemap.xml, and llms.txt.

Fun facts

• Starlight Page Actions is being used in the documentation of Aspire, a Microsoft project.

That's a wrap for this first edition of The Build Log.

I want to take a moment to thank all of you, both current and past members and supporters, for your trust and encouragement.

If you want prioritized feature requests, and early releases, sponsor me and help keep these projects moving forward.

See you next month with more updates!
