John, I know this is going to be considered a dumb question by many, but for a guy like me that doesn't use markdown, is there a regular editor like Medium or WordPress on Ghost? It would me switching over easier.
@markjohn1 hang in there on markdown, it's worth learning. Likely you'll use only a handful of the "shortcuts" frequently – at least, that's been my experience. Creating hyperlinks seems a bit laborious at first, but becomes a habit quickly enough.
Congrats on the release @johnonolan, @hannah_wolfe and team. As we high-fived on Twitter earlier, it made the team smile today to see this drop.
What I find awesome is how much of the component-driven content redesign echoes what we've been building into the next major Corilla release. Something that really excites us as a reflection of industry shift and the wider pattern recognition.
It's genuinely exciting to see those of us who peeled out of legacy CMS/CCMS to pursue a UX-first design mentality are all moving ahead. I know I'll be supporting you all at Ghost and looking forward to catching up sometime (whatever country that will be given our ✈️ remote lifestyles). Super pumped for you 🙌
And an extra 🤘 for hitting the big GA release! Such a magic number.

@johnonolan@hannah_wolfe What a great release. Are the themes created in previous version compatible with the latest release?
Is it possible to make ghost store content for your ghost blog as just normal files in markdown rather than storing it in a database? This would let you store your blog content in a git repo.
@ishu3101 I've been using it for a bit and none of the themes I've tried have worked.

I think I'm actually going to start writing for real now

Hi,
I’ve been on the bag-wagon since version 0.4. I bought many themes over the years and followed each release with great attention.
I made a bet on the Ghost team when I switch from WP. Today is a great victory for those who believe in the project since the Kickstarter pitch.
Many thanks for all those efforts and many cheers !
