help Forestry.io FAQ
What was Forestry.io used for?
Forestry.io was a Git-based content management system for editing structured content in repositories used by static-site and Jamstack projects. Editors could work through a web interface while content remained connected to the site's codebase.
Was Forestry.io the same thing as Ghost CMS?
Forestry.io was a separate product from Ghost, even though catalog descriptions may group it with modern headless CMS tools. Its central model was Git-backed editing for sites built with frameworks such as Hugo, Jekyll, and Gatsby.
What happened to Forestry.io?
Forestry announced an end-of-life process, with the service scheduled to shut down in March 2023. Users were directed toward migration options rather than treating Forestry as a current hosted CMS.
What are modern replacements for Forestry.io?
A replacement depends on whether the project needs Git-based editing or a hosted content platform. TinaCMS, Decap CMS, Sanity, and the built-in CMS options from platforms such as GitBook cover different parts of the workflow Forestry served.
