Forestry

Forestry is the leading Git based CMS. It allows editors, clients and publishers to edit static sites that use markdown with having to code.

Forestry Schema

While technically you can import a static into Forestry without writing a config, the default import provides a basic (inferred) experience.

This theme ships with an extensive .forestry configuration which strictly defines its content schema and;

  • Creates a nicely ordered Forestry Sidebar
  • Has all front-matter fields specified using the correct field types, default options etc.
  • Uses Forestry blocks and front-matter templates to replicate page builder functionality correctly in Forestry

Forestry front matter templates Front matter templates have been created for each page and section

Hero front matter fields This is the front matter template for the Hero section. You can see we’ve made extensive use of field groups, include templates and have correctly configured each field

Page builder sections The page builder sections when created a new page
