gatsby-theme-try-ghost

A Gatsby theme plugin for creating blogs from headless Ghost CMS.

Turn your Ghost blog into a flaring fast static website. This Gatsby theme is a frontend replacement of the Ghost handlebars engine featuring the standard Ghost Casper skin and functionality. All content is sourced from a headless Ghost CMS.

⚠️ I am no longer maintaining these plugins, but PRs for fixes and version updates are most welcome!
