Roll Your Own Analytics With Astro, Vercel Edge Functions and Neon

In this post, I’ll explain how you can “roll your own” version of Google Analytics using Astro, Vercel Edge Functions and Neon.

I’ve prepared a sample repository showing the implementation for a site built using Astro and deployed to Vercel.

I’ve used this same approach for my own site, paulie.dev, and I’ll explain how I’ve used the data to create the visualisations on my dashboard.

For good measure, I’ve also created a Next.js sample repository, but I won’t be covering that in this post.
