A ready to use static blog, powered by Cecil.
Create your own repository from the GitHub template, then just edit Markdown files in pages/blog/.
The easiest way to deploy and manage your blog is certainly with Netlify + Netlify CMS.
If your goal is managing content quickly, and decide later where to deploy to it, use the following button to import the starter blog to Forestry CMS and start editing immediatelly!
- Change configuration by editing
config.ymlfile - Change templates by copying files from
themes/<theme>/layouts/to your ownlayouts/directory to override them
Run the following command in a terminal:
bash ./scripts/build.sh| Solution | Demo | Deploy |
