Hive

Hive is a Astro theme by Rob Austin (Paid). Tested on 2026-09-21 with Google Lighthouse via PageSpeed Insights on its own demo store, it scores 63 for mobile speed and 81 for desktop speed, 92/85 for SEO and 91/92 for accessibility (mobile/desktop, 0–100). Note: its demo home page is heavy — 13.8 MB — heavier than a typical store, so the speed score may understate the theme.
