<h3>What is the Sample App Gallery?</h3>
Astra's raison d'etre is to connect every developer to the power of Apache Cassandra&trade;. This means that whether you're writing massively parallel applications with Apache Spark, cranking out your next <a href="https://www.datastax.com/cloud-native">cloud-native</a> app in GoLang, or writing JAMStack applications, you can take advantage of Cassandra's scalability and performance.

This page of sample apps you can build in 10min using the free Astra (<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/cassandra?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#cassandra</a>) is pretty damn amazing. Especially how fast the folks put it together. Lots of fun to be had here: react.js, jamstack, gatsby.js, graphQL, Spark, next.js, ...<a href="https://t.co/t8fhgSxEYr">https://t.co/t8fhgSxEYr</a> <a href="https://t.co/tNQqvooIS4">pic.twitter.com/tNQqvooIS4</a>
