# About the Astro-based Wix CLI for Apps

<blockquote class="warning">

**Deprecated**

The Astro-based Wix CLI for Apps is deprecated. New projects should use the [Wix CLI for Apps](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/wix-cli/cli-for-apps/about-the-wix-cli-for-apps).

- To find out which structure a project uses, see [Determine Which CLI Your Project Uses](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/build-apps/develop-your-app/develop-an-app-with-the-cli/project-development/determine-which-cli-your-project-uses).
- To migrate an existing app to the new Wix CLI, see [Migrate an Astro-based CLI App to the New Wix CLI](fallback::https://dev.wix.com/docs/build-apps/develop-your-app/develop-an-app-with-the-cli/migrate-an-app-to-the-new-cli/migrate-an-app-from-the-astro-based-cli/migrate-an-astro-based-cli-app-to-the-new-wix-cli).

The Astro-based Wix CLI for Apps is an earlier version of the Wix CLI for app projects. Its projects are built on the Astro web framework, declare their extensions with the `@wix/astro` package, and are configured in `wix.config.json` and `astro.config.mjs`. Their commands run as `wix <command>`.

The articles in this section support the maintenance of existing Astro-based app projects:
