I must say that your blog posts have been really helpful, please check your your blog post where you originally posted this post, the images there are all broken
Cheers!
Thanks for letting me know I'll fix them.
you are welcome
Thanks for the post!
I use it for the blog of my company and it works well ( specialy for the none tech writer)
My only complain, the preview can take too much time to build :/
Maybe you have a trick ?
Previews are much faster now, they usually take less than 5s to show up.
Right. I also have a problem with how long I have to wait to preview. For now, I don't have any trick for that but I'll be sure to update this if I find anything useful. :)
This is pretty cool! I checked out Forestry a while back (2 years ago) when it was still pretty young and it was good then but didn't have all the features it has now! easily writing content for static blogs has always been a turn off for me... I used to use stackedit.io but now I'll definitely give forestry another spin.
Great write up!
Thanks Emmanuel. I totally agree I tried stackedit too recently. Quite a good solution but I feel forestry really just helps me do most of my work.
Because some of us may have started with a template from Forestry, it might be worth mentioning, in order to set up Netlify for deployment only (because you may want a public url), you can do that after. Visit netlify.com, press "Deploy from Git" button and go through the steps of connecting your repo and forestry branch. That's it. Now whenever you add a new post/page/whatever to Forestry, Netlify will automatically build/serve it.
Thank you for adding that.
Nice post easy to maintain Static site
